Professorship (W3) for Theoretical Particle Physics

The University of Bonn is one of the large excellence universities in Germany, hosting 6 Clusters of Excellence funded by the German National Science Foundation (DFG), one of them within the Department of Physics and Astronomy. The Faculty of Mathematics and Natural Sciences of the University of Bonn invites applications for a

Professorship (W3) for Theoretical Particle Physics

to be filled at the earliest possible time at the Institute of Physics in the Department of Physics and Astronomy.

The research area of this professorship will be the phenomenology of elementary particles in the Standard Model and/or physics beyond the Standard Model. We are looking for candidates that will complement and/or enlarge the broad spectrum of activities in theoretical and experimental particle physics in Bonn. We are also currently strengthening our collaborations with the Technical University Dortmund, the University of Siegen and the Forschungszentrum Jülich, and the professorship is expected to contribute substantially to this effort through joint research and teaching activities.

Teaching according to the Lehrverpflichtungsverordnung NRW is an integral part of the professorship, which includes teaching lecture courses and seminars on all levels of the courses of study in German and in English. Corresponding teaching experience is expected. The successful candidate should also be actively involved in academic self-governance.

The formal requirements are regulated by § 36 HG NRW. The University of Bonn is committed to diversity and equal opportunities. The University of Bonn is certified as a family-friendly university and has a Dual-Career Service. Its aim is to increase the proportion of women in areas where women are underrepresented and to particularly promote their careers. It therefore strongly encourages applications from qualified women. Applications are handled in accordance with the Landesgleichstellungsgesetz NRW. Applications of suitable candidates with proven severe disabilities and of persons of equal status are especially invited.

Applications are requested by 09/30/2024 through the application web portal of the University of Bonn
