Tenure-track faculty position at the University of Richmond<br>
<br>
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.<br>
<br>
Candidates should apply online at the University of Richmond Online
Employment website (<a href="https://www.urjobs.org">https://www.urjobs.org</a>)
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. <br>
<br>
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
