Post Specification:The Department invites applications for tenure-track Assistant Professor positions, which will start from the academic year 2020-2021. The Department anticipates that there will be multiple positions. Appointment at the level of Assistant Professor is expected but a more senior appointment will be considered for candidates with exceptional qualifications. Applicants in areas in physics currently being pursued in the department, particularly in experimental studies, are welcome to apply, including: Applicants should (i) have a relevant PhD degree with postdoctoral research experience; (ii) demonstrate a track record of research accomplishments, potential for establishing a significant externally funded research programme; and (iii) have a strong interest in teaching at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Appointments will normally be made on contract basis for up to three years initially, which, subject to mutual agreement, may lead to longer-term appointment or substantiation later (substantive appointment may be considered during the second three-year contract). Applications will be accepted until the positions are filled. Applicants should submit an online application and attach a full resume, research plan, teaching statement, copies of academic credentials, a publication list and/or abstracts of selected published papers (if any), together with names, addresses and fax numbers/e-mail addresses of three referees to whom the applicants' consent has been given for their providing references (unless otherwise specified). |
Post Specification:The Department of Physics invites applications for multiple positions of Research Assistant Professorship, starting as soon as possible. Applicants should have (i) a relevant PhD degree; and (ii) research experience in areas in physics/Materials Science currently being pursued in the department. The appointees will work closely with faculty members who sponsor the RAP in the Department to enhance the existing strengths. Information about relevant research in the Department can be found at here. The appointees are expected to be able to secure RGC GRF grants and similar external competitive grants. They are also expected to undertake light teaching duties at undergraduate and postgraduate levels. Appointments will initially be made on contract basis for up to three years, renewable subject to mutual agreement. Applications will be accepted until the posts are filled. Applicants should submit an online application and attach a full resume, a brief research statement (not longer than three pages), copies of academic credentials, a publication list and/or abstracts of selected published papers, together with names, addresses and e-mail addresses of three referees to whom the applicants' consent has been given for their providing evaluation letters. |
