There are still lots of open positions. Let's find the one that's right for you.
The Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering (PME) at the University of Chicago is seeking applications for faculty positions at the ranks of Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, and Professor. This unique interdisciplinary school, launched in 2011, focuses on translating molecular and quantum science into technological solutions that can have a significant societal impact in areas such as quantum information technology, environmental sustainability, energy, water, materials, and health and immunology. PME currently has 17 faculty members engaged in both fundamental and applied aspects of quantum science and engineering, and it is affiliated with Argonne National Laboratory and the Center for Molecular Engineering at Argonne. Joint appointments are encouraged when appropriate. The successful candidates will be part of a cluster hire in quantum science at the University of Chicago, which includes other openings in both theoretical and experimental quantum science and engineering. Applicants must hold a doctoral degree or equivalent in a field related to theoretical and/or computational quantum science and engineering, or a related discipline, before the start of employment. A strong record of independent research in these areas is essential. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to, quantum information, quantum computing, quantum communication, quantum sensing, quantum error correction, quantum mechanical materials modeling, quantum optics, and quantum simulation. Candidates applying for the Associate or Full Professor ranks must demonstrate evidence of leadership in their field and possess an outstanding track record of independent research, qualifying them for appointment as a tenured professor in the Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering or jointly with another department at the University. All successful candidates will be expected to establish and maintain a robust research program and teach at both the graduate and undergraduate levels. The review of applications will continue until the position is filled.
