The department (<a>https:\/\/physics.hmc.edu\/<\/a>) has thirteen full-time members; we graduate between 20 and 30 physics majors each year.<\/p>\n<p>We seek an experimental, theoretical, or computational physicist with broad intellectual interests who can excel at teaching outstanding undergraduates and who can establish an active research program involving undergraduates. Current areas of research in the department include biophysics, quantum and nonlinear optics, condensed matter physics, soft matter physics, geophysics, semiconductor physics and the environment, theoretical astrophysics and observational astronomy and cosmology, string theory, general relativity, and theoretical particle physics. Although we welcome applications from outstanding candidates regardless of subfield, we are particularly interested in a candidate who can develop a vibrant research program in AMO or condensed matter physics.<\/p>\n<p>For full consideration, applications should be received by <strong>4 November 2016<\/strong>, but applications will be accepted until the position is filled. On-campus interviews will include both teaching an upper-division physics class and presenting a research colloquium. Applicants should apply online at <a href=\"https:\/\/AcademicJobsOnline.org\/ajo\">https:\/\/AcademicJobsOnline.org\/ajo<\/a>, where they should submit: (1) a curriculum vit\u221a\u00b6; (2) a statement of teaching experience and interests, as part of which applicants are invited to comment on any experience with or demonstrated ability to effectively teach students from diverse backgrounds; (3) a statement of research interests that describes how undergraduates would be involved in the proposed research; and (4) three letters of reference, at least one of which addresses teaching ability or potential. Please address the cover letter to <strong>Professor Theresa W.
