W 3 - Professorship for Physical Chemistry of Nanomaterials (m/f/d)

Job Profile:
The call is addressed to internationally outstanding scientists at the forefront of contemporary physical chemistry. Scientists who combine the fabrication or modification of innovative nanostructured materials with the development or use of new instrumental physical techniques for their characterization are particularly welcome.

The potential candidate is expected to strengthen the focus of the Department of Chemistry through the fabrication/modification of nanoscale materials and/or through the development or use of experimental characterization techniques not previously available.

The department is expected to take a leading role in one of the CINSaT (Center for Interdisciplinary Nanostructure Science and Technology) thematic areas - biosensing, electron dynamics of chiral structures, photonics, three-dimensional nanostructures - and participate in the relevant collaborative initiatives of the department.

A high level of commitment to teaching, evidence of successful acquisition of competitive external funding, an active publication record in international journals, and international research experience are required. The subject of physical chemistry is to be represented in its entire breadth in the bachelor's and master's degree programs in nanostructure science and in the teacher training programs in chemistry, and participates in service tasks in other degree programs.

For this professorship, participation in the academic self-government of the university is part of the service duties.

Profile of Requirements:
The requirements for employment and the performance requirements according to §§ 61, 62 of the Hessian University Law apply.

In particular, the aptitude for scientific work, usually proven by a habilitation or habilitation-equivalent achievements, as well as pedagogical aptitude are required.

For further inquiries, please contact the Dean of the Department, Prof. Dr. Maria Specovius-Neugebauer (e-mail: specoviu[at]uni-kassel[dot]de, phone: 0561/804-4421).

The University of Kassel is highly interested in the professional satisfaction of its employees. It therefore promotes the compatibility of partnership and family with professional development through its Dual Career Service and its Family Welcome Service. One of the University of Kassel's strategic goals is to significantly increase the proportion of women in research and teaching. Applications from women are therefore particularly welcome. Severely disabled applicants will be given preference if they are equally qualified and qualified. Applications including curriculum vitae, references, certificates, list of scientific papers, three selected publications, a list of courses, and a teaching and research concept should be sent to the President of the University of Kassel, 34109 Kassel or bewerbungen[at]uni-kassel[dot]de, indicating the reference number in the subject line, if possible also in electronic form.
