Position Description
Postdoctoral Research Associate in Theoretical Quantum MaterialsThe theoretical condensed matter physics group at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM) invites applications for two postdoctoral research positions, to work with the research groups of Prof. Daniel Agterberg and Prof. Michael Weinert. The initial appointment is for one year, with renewal for a second-year contingent on satisfactory performance. Applicants should have a PhD in physics or a related field. The theoretical condensed matter group at UWM has active research efforts in condensed matter theory, with expertise in correlations and topology in quantum materials, first-principles electronic structure calculations, superconductivity, and strongly correlated electronic systems.
We are recruiting two postdoctoral research associates in quantum materials with an emphasis on quantum magnetism (including multipolar magnetism and altermagnetism). Applicants with backgrounds in density functional theory of quantum materials, topological band theory, and strongly correlated electron systems are encouraged to apply. The position includes a competitive salary and excellent fringe benefits.
Applicants should send a CV, publication list, and a brief research statement. Applicants should also arrange to have two letters of recommendation to Academic Jobs Online. Review of applications will begin on December 22, 2025 and will continue until the position is filled.
UWM is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
Application Materials Required:
Submit the following items online at this website to complete your application:
- Cover letter
- Curriculum Vitae
- Research statement
- Publication list
- Two reference letters (to be submitted online by the reference writers on this site. Letters should be submitted by 2025/12/22 11:59PM )
