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.

Back to Job listings...
Shanghai University (http://www.shu.edu.cn/) is seeking outstanding investigators for full-time postdoc and faculty positions in Computational Materials Science and Condensed Matter Physics, at the ranks of Assistant Professor through Full professor. Candidates will be part of the International Centre for Quantum and Molecular Structures (ICQMS) http://icqms.shu.edu.cn/ and Department of Physics, Shanghai University.
We are seeking candidates of exceptional scientific talent with demonstrated success in the development and/or application of density-functional theory (DFT) and/or first principles related approaches to applications in Condensed Matter Physics and/or Materials Science. The primary objective is the development and application of DFT-based methods for
(1) magnetic and ferroelectric materials (e.g. perovskites);
(2) two-dimensional layered and topological materials;
(3) materials genome and design, spintronics, and quantum transport.
All positions require a PhD in Physics, Chemistry, Materials or a related discipline. Successful candidates will be expected to raise external grant funding, supervise post-graduate PhD and Masters students, give graduate and undergraduate lectures in English, participate in activities of the Department of Physics at Shanghai University, and carry out scientific collaborations.
Shanghai University is a well-funded, internationally connected, rapidly raising University with a strong profile in Materials Science, and indeed is a central player in the extensive Chinese Materials Genome Initiative (MGI) project, to which ICQMS will contribute.
The negotiable anticipated start date is as soon as possible, or until the positions are filled. Shanghai University is an Equal Opportunity Employer and all persons are encouraged to apply. The positions come with generous salary and benefits packages, as well as with extensive research and travel support guaranteed for startup.
Applicants should send their curriculum vitae including lists of publications, summaries of their research interests, summaries of research proposals, lists of prizes and awards, summaries of teaching, community service and administrative experience, and have three reference letters sent directly to Prof. Wei Ren: [email protected]
