Assistant Professor (Tenure Track) of Materials Science for Sustainable Construction

The Department of Materials of ETH Zurich (www.mat.ethz.ch) invites applications for an assistant professorship in the area of materials science for sustainable construction, with special focus on interfaces, resilience, and durability.

The successful candidate will hold a PhD degree, preferably in Materials Science, Physics, or Chemistry, and has had several years of experience (possibly also obtained in industry) involving basic research in the area of long-term use of materials and their resulting property changes. The professor will be expected to establish close collaborative relationships (both theoretical and experimental) with other members of the Department of Materials as well as with members of the Departments of Architecture, Chemistry, Civil Engineering, or Physics. He or she will be expected to teach Materials Science students at both undergraduate level (in German or English) and graduate level (in English), and to give special courses for other disciplines.

Assistant professorships were established to promote the careers of younger scientists. The initial appointment is for four years, with the possibility of renewal for an additional two-year period and promotion to a permanent position.

Please apply online at www.facultyaffairs.ethz.ch. Your application should include your curriculum vitae, a list of publications, and a statement of your research and teaching interests. The letter of application should be addressed to the President of ETH Zurich, Prof. Dr. Ralph Eichler. The closing date for applications is May 31, 2011. With a view towards increasing the number of female professors, ETH Zurich specifically encourages qualified female candidates to apply.
