Faculty (Assistant, Associate or Full Professor), Physics
Buffalo, US
Computational science & software engineering, Quantum science & technology
The Department of Physics (https://arts-sciences.buffalo.edu/physics.html) at the University at Buffalo (UB), The State University of New York is seeking to fill an open-rank tenure-track faculty position in experimental physics in the area of biological applications of quantum science and technologies. The successful candidate is expected to build an active research program in developing concepts/techniques/materials for quantum imaging and/or quantum sensing with potential applications in the broad area of life sciences at scales beyond the reach of conventional techniques.
The Department of Physics is entering a period of significant growth: two tenure­ track faculty members (an experimental physicist working in MBE growth of quantum materials and a theoretical physicist working in quantum information processing/quantum optics) started this year. This position is part of a multi-year, multi-faculty recruitment effort in quantum science and technology supported by the Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, the Office of the Provost and the State of New York.
The Department is a vibrant community with a long tradition and strong commitment to excellence in research, service, and teaching. Research interests within the Department span the traditional disciplines of physics - condensed matter physics, biophysics, high energy physics and cosmology and non-linear dynamics. We benefit greatly from collaborative affiliations with researchers within the College of Arts and Sciences; the Schools of Engineering, Medicine, and Pharmacy; the Centers of Excellence in Bioinformatics and Materials Informatics; and the Center for Computational Research.
Outstanding Benefits Package
Working at UB comes with benefits that exceed salary alone. There are personal rewards including comprehensive health and retirement plan options.
