Lecturer/Senior Lecturer/Reader in Astrophysics (Mathematics and Physics)

We are seeking to recruit an experienced academic to a joint position between Mathematics and Physics within the School of Science and Engineering at the University of Dundee. This is a fulltime permanent Teaching & Research position and depending on experience the appointment will be on the level of Lecturer, Senior Lecturer, or Reader. We are looking for a highly motivated, enthusiastic and collegiate individual with a PhD in Astrophysics, Physics or Mathematics and an excellent research record who maintains, or develops, a vigorous, independent, theoretical or computational research programme. Both disciplines contribute to an active research cluster in Astrophysics within the School and we would particularly welcome applications from individuals who complement our existing research strengths in star formation, exoplanet systems, solar magnetohydrodynamics and scientific computing. We will also consider exceptional applications from other related Mathematical Physics research fields and encourage applications from holders of personal fellowships.

We deliver BSci and MSci degrees in Physics with Astrophysics, Mathematics and Astrophysics, Mathematics, and Physics. The successful candidate will be expected to contribute with high-quality teaching to these programmes.
