Job announcements relevant to people interested in electronic structure calculations…
Due to the large number of posts recently, there is currently a delay of several weeks between posts being submitted and the corresponding emails being distributed to all users. Please bear with us while we try to improve this. In the meantime – and until this notice is removed – it would assist us considerably if you could submit only important and/or urgent posts and thus help to reduce the size of the mail queue. Under no circumstances should you resend posts multiple times when you find the emails are not distributed immediately.
In light of the Russian military offensive in Ukraine, we request that announcements relating to events, jobs and other activities associated with institutions supported by the Russian and Belarusian states are not posted to the Psi-k forum.

The Physics Department at Central Michigan University (CMU) is seeking outstanding candidates for a postdoctoral position in the area of electronic structure theory development. The successful candidate will work with Professors Koblar A. Jackson and Juan E. Peralta, contributing to an exciting, large-scale effort to remove self-interaction errors from density functional theory using the Fermi-Löwdin orbital self-interaction correction (FLO-SIC) approach. For more information about the project, please see http://www.flosic.org. The work will have a strong focus on FORTRAN code development and will involve collaborating with researchers at Temple University and the University of Texas at El Paso.
Central Michigan University is dedicated to fostering a broadly diverse and inclusive campus that respects all social identities, experiences, and perspectives. In an effort to further this initiative, we are especially interested in candidates who will advance and promote an inclusive and supportive environment for every member of our university community.
Review of applications will begin immediately and continue until the position is filled. Please provide a cover letter addressed to Professors Jackson ([email protected]) and Peralta ([email protected]), a CV (including a list of publications), and a list of three reference contacts. The appointment will begin as early as July 16, 2022. This is a grant-funded position and the initial appointment is for one year. An extension is possible, depending on satisfactory performance and continued funding. A competitive salary and benefits package will be offered.
The CMU Physics Department offers B.S., B.S. in Ed., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in physics and participates in the interdisciplinary Ph.D. in the Science of Advanced Materials. The Department houses active research programs in several areas, including computational condensed matter and chemical physics and experimental condensed matter and materials physics.
