Richmond

UR Main Campus, United States of America

Assistant Professor of Physics.

FULL TIME
The Department of Physics in the School of Arts and Sciences at the University of Richmond invites applications for a full-time tenure-track position at the rank of Assistant Professor to begin in the 2027-2028 academic year. We seek a candidate whose research will broaden our department in any of several areas. As a result, applications are encouraged from candidates in all subfields of physics and applied physics, both theoretical and experimental. The successful candidate is expected to have demonstrated a keen interest and ability in undergraduate teaching. The successful candidate will maintain a vigorous research program that engages undergraduates in substantive research outcomes. Courses taught will include workshop-style introductory physics for science majors, upper-division courses for undergraduate physics majors, and possibly general-education courses for non-science majors. Candidates should have a PhD in Physics or a closely related field, and postdoctoral or other research experience beyond the PhD. Applicants should apply online at https://jobs.richmond.edu and submit a curriculum vitae, cover letter, a statement of teaching interests and philosophy (approx. 2-5 single-spaced pages), evidence of teaching effectiveness if available (e.g., sample assignments and other course materials, examples of graded student work, peer and student evaluations, etc.), and a description of a research program, including plans for undergraduate involvement (approx. 2-5 single-spaced pages). The teaching statement should detail the applicant’s teaching philosophy and approaches to inclusive pedagogy and mentoring in support of a diverse undergraduate community. Candidates for this position may be asked, at a later date, to provide the names and contact information for three references who will be asked to submit letters of recommendation. Review of applications will commence on October 1 and continue until the position is filled. Please contact Dr. Ted Bunn (ebunn@richmond.edu) with any questions. For more information on the physics department and its programs, please visit https://physics.richmond.edu. The starting salary for the position is budgeted at $85,000. Compensation is determined by the candidate’s individual qualifications, experience, education, and skills. Startup funds will be available.
