Professorship (W3) of Theoretical Solid State Physics at the Institute of Theoretical Solid State Physics (succession of Prof. Dr. Gerd Schön).

We are seeking for an outstanding scientist working in the area of theoretical solid-state physics or the theory of condensed matter systems. Your topics of research might be many-body physics, quantum transport, quantum-state engineering, or light-matter interactions.

You take part in lecturing courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels and the supervision of bachelor and master students. Applicants must have obtained the degree of Habilitation or demonstrate equivalent scientific qualifications as well as experience in teaching. The appointed professor is expected to teach in German after a reasonable amount of time.
