Tenure-track faculty position at the University of Richmond

The Department of Physics at the University of Richmond invites 
applications for a tenure-track faculty position as an assistant 
professor in physics to begin in August 2013 (for exceptional candidates 
an appointment at a more senior level might be considered). Applications 
are encouraged from candidates in all sub-fields of physics, both theory 
and experiment, but applications from candidates whose scholarship 
complements existing research areas in the department (biophysics, 
cosmology, low- and medium-energy nuclear physics and surface physics) 
may receive particular attention. The successful candidate is expected 
to have demonstrated a keen interest and ability in undergraduate 
teaching and to maintain a vigorous research program that engages 
undergraduates in substantive research outcomes. Candidates must possess 
a doctoral degree in physics prior to appointment.

Candidates should apply online at the University of Richmond Online 
Employment website (https://www.urjobs.org) using the Faculty 
(Instructional/Research) link. Applicants are asked to submit a cover 
letter, a current curriculum vitae with a list of publications, a 
statement of their teaching interests and philosophy, evidence of 
teaching effectiveness (if available), a description of current and 
planned research programs, and the names of three references who will 
receive an automated email asking them to submit their reference letters 
to this web site. Review of applications will commence November 1, 2012 
and continue until the position is filled.

The University of Richmond is a highly selective private university with 
approximately 3000 undergraduates located on a beautiful campus six 
miles west of the heart of Richmond and in close proximity to the ocean, 
mountains, and Washington D.C. The University of Richmond is committed 
to developing a diverse workforce and student body and to being an 
inclusive campus community. We strongly encourage applications from 
candidates who will contribute to these goals. For more information 
please see the department's website at http://physics.richmond.edu or 
contact Prof. C.W. Beausang, Chair, Department of Physics, (email: 
cbeausan at richmond.edu <mailto:cbeausan at richmond.edu>).
