The Wyant College of Optical Sciences has been fortunate to receive philanthropic support to create 14 new Endowed Chairs in Optical Science positions in the College. While positions are open at all levels, very highly accomplished applicants will also be considered as potential recipients for the nine Endowed Chairs that are available to be awarded:
The Wyant College of Optical Sciences at the University of Arizona is world-renowned for the breadth and depth of its research and education programs in Optical Sciences. The college’s Optical Physics program is one of four major research areas, focusing on fundamental studies of the nature of light and light-matter interactions. Current faculty research in optical physics includes experimental and theoretical investigations of ultra-fast laser physics, frequency comb spectroscopy, high-field laser physics and ultra-high nonlinear propagation, light-induced quantum phases and advanced optical materials, many-body semiconductor photonics, Bose-Einstein condensates, quantum optomechanics, and quantum information and control. This search seeks candidates who will bolster the collaborative potential in these areas, while also potentially establishing directions of research in new areas of interest.
The general area of interest is experimental Optical Physics, with an emphasis on Atomic, Molecular and Optical (AMO) Physics, Quantum Optics, Ultrafast Science, Precision Measurement and Sensing, and Quantum Information Science. Applicants whose main work is theoretical should present evidence of successful collaboration with experimental groups.
The Optical Physics group also enjoys
collaborative opportunities with the college’s other three major research
areas of Photonics, Image Science, and Optical Engineering, and often
benefits from large multi-university programs including MURIs and our lead
role in the recently announced Center for Quantum Networks (CQN), one of the
four new NSF Gen 4 Engineering Research Centers in the USA.
This tenure/tenure-track position anticipates a candidate with demonstrated
strength in his or her field of research. Successful candidates are expected
to set up a world class research program and demonstrate strong commitment to
teaching. Duties include:
For private sector or government laboratory applicants, lack of a proven teaching and extramural research funding record could be remedied with other related credentials that demonstrate strong communications skills and a demonstrated history of technical depth and leadership. We seek an individual who is able to work with and attract a diverse group of undergraduate and graduate students and colleagues. Development of novel courses pertaining to the candidate’s area of expertise, as well as exceptional teaching of our core curriculum, is expected.
