[Xavier Siemens]

Dear Colleagues,

I wanted to bring to your attention a new faculty position in astrophysics
at Oregon State University.  This is the first of two hires we will be
making in the next couple of years.  The text of the ad is below.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

All the best,

Xavi

PS: Apologies if you receive this more than once.

-------------------------------------

The Department of Physics at Oregon State University (OSU) invites
applications for a full-time tenure-track faculty position (Assistant
Professor rank) in astrophysics. Candidates from all subfields of
astrophysics and astronomy are encouraged to apply, but preference will be
given to applicants in the fields of gravitational-wave astrophysics,
multi-messenger astronomy, and related areas.

OSU is a public R1 research university and the largest university in the
state of Oregon, with an enrollment of over 33,000 students and a
sponsored-project research budget of over 380 million dollars per year. Our
department has research groups in the areas of astrophysics, biophysics,
condensed matter physics, high energy physics, optical physics, physics
education, and quantum cosmology.  The successful candidate will engage in
theoretical and/or observational work that expands or complements the
current research areas of the astrophysics group at OSU. These areas
include theoretical and computational astrophysics, gravitational-wave
astronomy, pulsar timing, data analysis, general relativity, and cosmology.
This position is one of two anticipated hires to further grow our
astrophysics efforts. OSU is located in the city of Corvallis. Corvallis is
ranked as one of the safest, greenest, and best college towns in the US.
The city offers year-round cultural and outdoor activities, as well as
convenient trips to the mountains or the coast.

The primary responsibilities of this position are to establish and sustain
an independent research program through external funding; publish original
research in peer-reviewed journals; teach and mentor graduate students,
undergraduate students, and postdocs; and provide institutional and
professional service. Successful candidates will also demonstrate a
commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion; a tolerance for diverse
ideas within the academy, including those different from one’s own; and a
commitment to free inquiry based on evidence and criticism.

OSU is committed through continuous improvement to be a collaborative,
inclusive, and caring community that strives for equity and equal
opportunity in everything we do, and enables success for our students and
people from all walks of life. The University particularly seeks candidates
interested in contributing to the diversity and inclusive excellence of our
academic community through research, teaching, and service, and who are
committed to the success of all of our students.

The starting date for the position is anticipated to be in September 2022.
To apply, please visit  https://jobs.oregonstate.edu/postings/109310.
Please submit a cover letter, curriculum vitae, research statement,
teaching statement, diversity statement, and contact information for 3-5
references. To be assured full consideration, applications and reference
letters should be received by January 3 2022; however, the position will
remain open until filled.
