Job Description

The Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT) invites applications for a Tenure-track Professorship in Theoretical Cosmology. The successful candidate will be part of the Institute for Theoretical Physics and the KIT Center for Elementary Particle and Astroparticle Physics (KCETA).

The Tenure-track-professorship should focus on theoretical cosmology, broadly defined: early universe cosmology, general relativity, inflation, CMB physics, large scale structure, gravitational waves, phase transitions, or baryogenesis. The candidate is expected to strengthen and complement existing theoretical and experimental activities at KIT, in particle and astroparticle physics and cosmology.

The appointed Tenure-track-professor is expected to contribute to teaching in the field of theoretical physics (BSc/MSc) and to supervise students and doctoral researchers in the framework of the research group.

Requirements

  • High-level grant for a junior research group (e.g. DFG Emmy-Noether group, Helmholtz junior research group, ERC starting grants, junior research groups of ministries (BMBF) or a Sofia Kovalevskaja junior research group of the Alexander von Humboldt foundation)
  • Completed doctorate (PhD) in physics
  • Outstanding internationally visible scientific achievements in the area of cosmology
  • Pedagogical aptitude

Employment is subject to Art. 14, par. (2) of the KIT Act in conjunction with Art. 51 LHG Baden-Württemberg (Act of Baden-Württemberg on Universities and Colleges).
