We are looking for a person to do research at Notre Dame and teach at Saint Mary's. See the following:

The Notre Dame/Saint Mary’s Clare Boothe Luce Postdoctoral Instructorship in Physics. The Department of Physics at the University of Notre Dame invites applications for a new postdoctoral instructorship in physics. The position is restricted by the Clare Boothe Luce bequest to the Henry Luce Foundation to women who are U.S. citizens. The successful candidate will be expected to conduct research at Notre Dame and teach physics at Saint Mary’s College. The principal research areas of the Notre Dame Physics Department include astronomy/astrophysics, atomic physics, biophysics, condensed matter physics, high energy physics, nuclear physics and optical physics. Candidates from any of these research areas are eligible. The teaching portion of the position will occur at Saint Mary’s College, an undergraduate, Catholic women’s college sharing a common heritage with the University of Notre Dame. The teaching responsibilities are three lecture hours per week, two 2-hour labs per week and at least 4 office hours per week for the Fall and Spring semesters. The course will be calculus based physics for students in the life sciences. The position will allow the instructor to have independence while also having the opportunity to interact with and receive mentoring from experienced teachers at both institutions. The appointment will be for one year with the possibility of renewal.

Interested individuals should send a curriculum vitae, a statement of research and teaching interests, and arrange for three letters of reference to be sent directly to: Postdoctoral Instructorship Search Committee, Department of Physics, 225 Nieuwland Science Hall, University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, IN 46556 or by email to physics_search@nd.edu.
