The College of Physics and Institute of Particle Physics (IOPP) at Central China Normal University (CCNU) are pleased to announce the immediate availability of faculty positions in the area of low and intermediate energy nuclear physics. The positions are at the level of tenure track assistant professor, or more senior level commensurate with candidates' experience. Qualified applicants are required to have a Ph. D. in physics or equivalent and a minimum of two years of postdoctoral research experience in nuclear physics. We are looking for candidates with outstanding records of independent and original research, demonstrated ability or great potential for international leadership in low and intermediate energy nuclear physics. Successful candidates should be familiar with undergraduate teaching in nuclear physics and are expected to establish nuclear physics labs for undergraduate nuclear physics education. Preferences will be given to candidates who have undergraduate training in nuclear physics.
College of Physics at CCNU provides undergraduate education in Physics, Nuclear Physics, Science and Technology in Electronics and Information, Engineering in Communication and Electronic Engineering. The Physics Major in the College was placed in the 12thin the ranking by the Ministry of Education in 2012.
IOPP, established in 1978, is one of the largest institutions in High-energy Nuclear Physics in China. It has over 30 faculty members and about 40 PhD students. It is home to the Center of Nuclear Matter Science and Key Laboratory of Quark and Lepton Physics of Ministry of Education (MOE) of China. It is also a member of the ALICE and LHCb experiment at LHC, STAR experimental at RHIC and CBM experiment at future FAIR.
CCNU provides competitive salary and start-up funding, generous housing subsidies and compensation for relocation commensurate to the level of appointments and candidates' experience. The university will also sponsor applications for the national 1000-plan (foreign, regular and young) and Hubei 100-plan program for eligible candidates.
