Assistant/Associate Professor in the Physics of Energy Materials

We are seeking an exceptional early career scientist to develop an ambitious experimental programme in the Physics of Energy Materials.

The Department of Physics at the University of Cambridge is a vibrant and active research community in the area of energy materials, consisting of 15 academics and more than 200 postdoctoral researchers and PhD students.

We collaborate extensively with other departments, including the Winton Programme for the Physics of Sustainability.

The Assistant/Associate Professor post will be associated with our new 'Advanced Materials for the Energy Transition' (AMET) Taught MPhil Programme, a joint course with the Departments of Materials Science and Chemistry.

As an academic staff member, you will support teaching and administration at various levels in the department, in addition to running projects.

  • Applicants should have an undergraduate degree and a PhD in Physics (or a cognate discipline).
  • They should have a strong record of relevant research and demonstrate enthusiasm and ability to teach a wide range of physics courses successfully at both undergraduate and master's level.

Please provide the following documents in the Upload section of the online application:

  • A research proposal no longer than 3 pages, including a brief description of how your research plans might fit with existing activities at the Department of Physics and the wider University.
  • A one-page statement on your approach to teaching and how you believe you can contribute to the Department's teaching programme at undergraduate and graduate level.

The University actively supports equality, diversity and inclusion and encourages applications from all sections of society.

The University has a responsibility to ensure that all employees are eligible to live and work in the UK.
