TENURE TRACK PHYSICS FACULTY POSITION
CLARK UNIVERSITY
Clark University’s Department of Physics invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position at the Assistant Professor level to begin in Fall 2017. We seek a candidate with a strong interest in soft matter with an approach which may be experimental, computational, or both. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, active matter, bio-inspired design, soft robotics, non-equilibrium physics, self-assembly, and smart materials. The potential for complementing current departmental research and collaborating with colleagues outside the department is desirable. The candidate is expected to establish a vigorous research program with both graduate and undergraduate students. A very strong commitment to teaching and mentoring is expected. Candidates should have a PhD in Physics, or a related field, and postdoctoral experience is preferred. Further information about the department is available at http://physics.clarku.edu/. We are especially interested in qualified candidates who can contribute, through their research, teaching, and/or service, to the diversity and excellence of the academic community. We are an affirmative action/equal employment opportunity university and we strongly encourage members from historically underrepresented communities which is inclusive of all women to apply. Review of applications will begin December 1, 2016. Electronic submission of materials is preferred. Please send CV and a statement of research and teaching interests to Professor Arshad Kudrolli, Search Committee Chair, Department of Physics, Clark University, 950 Main St., Worcester, MA 01610.
