Position Description

We invite applications for a postdoc position at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) in the field of theoretical astroparticle physics with emphasis on neutrino physics, dark matter, axions and related topics. The position will be placed within the group of theoretical astroparticle physics at KIT lead by Thomas Schwetz. A lively research environement is available at KIT, including active groups in theoretical high energy physics (LHC phenomenology, flavour physics, Higgs physics, QFT) as well as several groups in experimental particle and astroparticle physics (KATRIN, XENON, DARWIN, Pierre Auger, IceCube, CMS, Belle-2).

The position is initially offered for two years, starting in fall 2022 or earlier, and can be extended for one more year subject to a satisfactory performance and availability of funds. An applicant should have a PhD degree in a relevant area obtained prior to the start of the position. Applicants should submit a curriculum vitae including a brief research statement and a publication list. They should also arrange for two or three letters of recommendation. Applications are accepted until the position is filled.

We aim to balance the number of female and male employees. We therefore especially encourage women to apply for this job. Applicants with disabilities will be preferentially considered if equally qualified.

Application Materials Required:
Submit the following items online at this website to complete your application:
  • Cover letter (optional)
  • Curriculum Vitae
  • Research statement (optional)
  • Publication list (optional)
  • Up to three reference letters (to be submitted online by the reference writers on this site help popup)
And anything else requested in the position description.
