Position Description: |
The Theoretical Particle Physics group at the “Scuola Internazionale Superiore di Studi Avanzati” (SISSA) in Trieste, Italy, invites expressions of interest for a faculty position from outstanding candidates with a strong research record on neutrino physics and related fields in particle and astroparticle phenomenology. The appointment procedure will be activated at the assistant professor, tenure-track, level*. The successful candidate is expected to work as an independent principal investigator, promoting and leading research activities to complement the current expertise of the present SISSA groups, as well as to attract external funds, take an active part in the SISSA PhD teaching programme, and supervise graduate students. Expressions of interest should be sent (in English and via Academic Jobs Online only) preferably by September 9, 2019. They should include: 1. Curriculum Vitae and the names of at least three referees. 2. Description of current research interests. 3. List of ten publications of greatest interest for the selection. The International School for Advanced Studies (SISSA) is a leading research and training institution (PhD School) located in Trieste, Italy. It offers first rate facilities (also for High Performance Computing) and has close connections with the International Center for Theoretical Physics (ICTP, HECAP), the National Institute for Nuclear Physics (INFN), and the Department of Theoretical Physics of the University of Trieste (DFT). More information on research at SISSA can be found here: TPP, APP, APC, SP, MPG. A kindergarten is available on site. *In the Italian system, a tenure track position corresponds to a “ricercatore TD b”, i.e. an assistant professor to be confirmed as an associate professor within three years after appointment. |
