The Department of Physics and Astronomy at the University of Victoria, 
together with TRIUMF, Canada’s national laboratory for particle and 
nuclear physics, invite applications for a tenure-track Assistant 
Professor position in the area of accelerator physics, available from 
*July 1, 2018.*

Applicants should possess a Ph.D. in physics, or related fields, and are 
expected to have an exemplary, internationally recognized research 
record in accelerator physics, with exceptional promise for future 
achievements and a commitment to excellence in graduate and 
undergraduate education in physics and astronomy. The successful 
candidate will be expected to develop a vibrant accelerator physics 
research program in collaboration with TRIUMF. Applicants with a track 
record of research on electron beams, which overlaps the primary areas 
for development at TRIUMF - including electron linacs, SCRF, beam 
instrumentation, target material and target station technology - and/or 
whose research allows for synergies with other research areas in the 
department including medical physics, will be given particular 
consideration. The University of Victoria is an equity employer and the 
department welcomes the benefits of increasing diversity within its 
faculty ranks, so we encourage applications from women, persons with 
disabilities, visible minorities, Aboriginal Peoples, people of all 
sexual orientations and genders, and others who may contribute to the 
further diversification of the University.

The Department of Physics and Astronomy 
(http://www.uvic.ca/science/physics/) consists of 23 faculty members 
with research interests in astronomy and astrophysics, particle and 
accelerator physics, condensed matter physics, medical physics and ocean 
physics. The particle physics group, consisting of nine faculty members 
and two IPP Research Scientists, benefits from close relations with 
TRIUMF and its staff. The Victoria Subatomic Physics and Accelerator 
Research Centre (VISPA) draws membership from the departmental particle 
physics group, and particle and accelerator physicists at TRIUMF. For 
more information about the research programs within VISPA, see 
https://www.uvic.ca/vispa/. For further information about TRIUMF, see 
http://www.triumf.ca.

This tenure-track faculty position will be jointly funded by the 
University of Victoria and TRIUMF for a period of five years, and 
thereafter it will solely be funded by the University of Victoria. 
During at least the initial five-year phase of the appointment, the 
incumbent is expected to make contributions to the TRIUMF program and 
represent TRIUMF nationally and internationally.

The preferred method of application is via 
https://AcademicJobsOnline.org/ 
<https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/10578>. A complete application 
will comprise a cover letter, a CV (including a publication list), a 
statement of research interests and plans, a statement of teaching 
philosophy and experience, and confidential letters from at least three 
referees.
