Assistant Professor in Condensed Matter Physics
4 weeks ago
The Department of Physics at Durham University seeks to appoint a scientist to the role of Assistant Professor in Condensed Matter Physics. We welcome applications from those able to demonstrate research excellence in the field of soft condensed matter physics, coupled with the enthusiasm and dedication to develop and deliver teaching for our students to a high standard. Applicants must also aim to understand and engage with the services, citizenship and values of the Department of Physics. Durham University provides a diverse working and teaching environment which is inclusive and welcoming, where everyone is treated fairly with dignity and respect. Candidates will be expected to demonstrate the key principles of equality, diversity and inclusion as part of the assessment process.
For this post within theoretical soft condensed matter, we are keen to hear from candidates with track records in the general areas of soft matter physics, including fluid dynamics across scales, solid-liquid interfaces, rheology, lubrication and wetting, as well as machine learning or metamaterials. We are particularly interested in applicants enabling collaborations with our soft matter experimentalists and/or industrial partners. We will also consider soft matter experimentalists aligned with our existing research infrastructure and complementing our internationally recognised activities involving optical- and atomic force microscopy-based techniques.
Candidates will be expected to develop their own research programme, to publish high-quality research with a focus on quality in high impact journals and have the potential to engage with industrial partners. They will also be expected to collaborate in the development and delivery of high-quality research-led teaching in an inclusive and supportive learning environment which enables undergraduate and postgraduate students to achieve their potential. The position will start around January 2025.
Candidates should have a PhD in Physics or a related subject and an established record of research at an internationally competitive level. They should also demonstrate potential for teaching and postgraduate student supervision and a clear commitment to developing an inclusive and welcoming working environment.
The Department of Physics is committed to building and maintaining a diverse and inclusive environment. It is pledged to the Athena SWAN charter, where we hold a silver award, and has the status of IoP Juno Champion. We embrace equality and particularly welcome applications from women, black and minority ethnic candidates, and members of other groups that are under-represented in physics. Durham University provides a range of benefits including pension, flexible and/or part time working hours, shared parental leave policy and childcare provision.
