The Department of Physical Sciences in the Faculty of Arts and Science invites applications for a full-time tenure-track appointment in Physics and Astronomy at the rank of Assistant Professor, commencing July 1, 2020, subject to final budgetary approval. The successful candidate will preferably be specialized in Astronomy or Astrophysics; however, other closely related disciplines will also be considered.

The candidate must demonstrate excellence, or clear promise of excellence, in teaching both junior and senior undergraduate-level courses. The successful candidate will be expected to deliver the equivalent of six courses per year, as their regular teaching load, and actively participate in curriculum development. The ability to teach introductory courses in a wide range of Physics disciplines would be an asset.

The successful candidate will be expected to develop a strong research program, involving undergraduate students, and build a broad external research network. The ability to attract external funding is desirable.

The successful candidate must have a Ph.D. in Physics, Astronomy, or a related relevant area of expertise, and have demonstrated a primary commitment to undergraduate teaching, student mentorship, and an ongoing research program involving undergraduate students.
