What are the responsibilities and job description for the Assistant Professor, Experimental Particle and Nuclear Physics position at Physics World?
Job Details
The Physics Department of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, located in Cambridge, MA, invites applications for a faculty position in the Experimental Particle and Nuclear Physics Division. We encourage applicants doing research in all areas of nuclear and particle physics. Currently, research groups in the MIT Laboratory for Nuclear Science (http://web.mit.edu/lns/) have a wide range of interests, including strong interaction physics, nuclear structure physics, electroweak symmetry breaking, dark matter searches, neutrino physics, physics beyond the standard model, new detector development and the physics of beams.
Faculty members at MIT conduct research, teach undergraduate and graduate courses, and supervise graduate and undergraduate participation in research. Candidates must demonstrate promise in both teaching and research. A Ph.D. in physics or physics-related discipline is required by the start of employment. Preference will be given to appointments at the Assistant Professor level.
The application deadline is December 1, 2025. Applicants should submit a curriculum vitae, a list of publications, a brief description of research interests and goals (the latter not to exceed 3 pages), and a 1 to 2-page statement on teaching, mentoring, advising, service and/or activities promoting an inclusive work environment and arrange for three letters of reference to be uploaded to this site. Only web submissions will be accepted. Candidates who are uncertain whether they fit into a particular search should contact the most relevant search chair. Any enquiries should be directed to Prof. Gunther Roland, Search Committee Chair, at rolandg@mit.edu.
The pay range for a 9-month academic appointment at the Assistant Professor rank: $140,000 – $156,000. MIT provides pay ranges representing its good faith estimate of what the Institute reasonably expects to pay for a position at the time of posting. The pay offered to a selected candidate during hiring will be based on factors such as (but not limited to) the scope and responsibilities of the position, the candidate’s work experience and education/training, internal peer equity, and applicable legal requirements. This pay range represents base pay only and does not include any other benefits or compensation.
All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, national origin, genetics, pregnancy, disability, age, veteran status, or other characteristics.
