Tenure-Track Position in Medical / Radiation Physics.

(this position turned into Dept. Chair search!).

The Physics Department at San Diego State University invites applications for a tenure-track position in experimental studies of the interaction of radiation with matter, with a specific interest in medical/radiation health physics, for example dosimetry or imaging. The position begins the fall of 2007.

Candidates must demonstrate a strong commitment to excellence in teaching at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. Applicants should have a Ph.D. in physics or related field and postdoctoral experience. The new faculty member will be expected to initiate a vigorous research program involving undergraduate as well as graduate students. The new faculty member is also expected to seek extramural funding to support their research program.

The Department offers a bachelor's and master's degree in physics, and has an existing program in health physics. We have on-going collaborations with local hospitals, clinics, and other industries involved with the application of medical and health physics. The Department has well-equipped radiological and nuclear instrumentation laboratories.

Applications should include

1. a curriculum vitae,
2. a statement of research and teaching interests including a description of future research plans,
3. the names and addresses of three references.

Applications should be sent to: Chair, Search Committee, San Diego State University, Physics Department, 5500 Campanile Drive, San Diego, California 92182-1233.
