Job Details

The Physics Department of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, located in Cambridge, MA, invites applications for a faculty position in the Experimental Particle and Nuclear Physics Division. We encourage applicants doing research in all areas of nuclear and particle physics. Currently, research groups in the MIT Laboratory for Nuclear Science (http://web.mit.edu/lns/) have a wide range of interests, including strong interaction physics, nuclear structure physics, electroweak symmetry breaking, dark matter searches, neutrino physics, physics beyond the standard model, new detector development and the physics of beams.

Faculty members at MIT conduct research, teach undergraduate and graduate courses, and supervise graduate and undergraduate participation in research. Candidates must show promise in teaching as well as in research. A Ph.D. in physics or physics-related discipline is required by the start of employment. Preference will be given to appointments at the Assistant Professor level.

The application deadline is December 9, 2024. Applicants should submit a curriculum vitae, a list of publications, a brief description of research interests and goals (the latter not to exceed 3 pages), and a 1 to 2-page statement on teaching, mentoring, advising, service and/or activities promoting an inclusive work environment and arrange for three letters of reference to be uploaded to https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/28445. Only web submissions will be accepted. Candidates uncertain whether they fit into a particular search should contact the most relevant search chair. Any enquiries should be directed to Prof. Richard Milner, Search Committee Chair, milner@mit.edu.

All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment and will not be discriminated against on the basis of race, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, disability, age, genetic information, veteran status, ancestry, or national or ethnic origin. MIT’s full policy on Nondiscrimination can be found here. Employment is contingent upon the completion of a satisfactory background check, including verifying any finding of misconduct (or pending investigation) from prior employers.
