POSTDOCTORAL POSITION IN CONDENSED MATTER THEORY AT THE UNIVERSITY OF MARYLAND
Applicants are invited to fill a postdoctoral position in condensed
matter theory at the University of Maryland, starting as early as
September 1, 2013 or at a later mutually acceptable date. The position
will be associated with both Condensed Matter Theory Center (CMTC,
http://www.physics.umd.edu/cmtc/) and Joint Quantum Institute (JQI, http://jqi.umd.edu/).
Prof. Victor Galitski will be the primary postdoctoral advisor. The
postdoctoral Fellow will also be expected to work in close
collaboration with other theoreticians and experimentalists at CMTC
and JQI and will have a lot of flexibility in the choice of research topics.
Candidates with expertise in any area of "hard" condensed matter
theory are invited to apply. However, preference will be for
candidates with strong technical (analytical) skills in a broad range
of subjects of many-body theory and a publication record that
demonstrates such strong skills.
The condensed matter theory group at the University of Maryland offers
an interactive and collaborative environment, which allows young
theorists to work on just about any subject of condensed matter and cold atoms.
UMD is located in the Washington, DC area; just a 30-minute drive from
the White House and a short metro ride from Washington's many museums,
concert halls, restaurants etc.
To apply, email your application to Victor Galitski at
lastname@umd.edu. The applications should include an up-to-date CV, a
list of three references, and a PDF copy of one selected publication
that the candidate may be asked to explain in technical details during
an interview. Do NOT send reference letters unless they are specifically requested.
The University of Maryland is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action employer and applications from women and minorities are encouraged.
