Center Staff Scientist Position AvailableThe Physics Division of National Center for Theoretical Sciences (NCTS) in Hsinchu, Taiwan is soliciting applications for a non-tenured "staff scientist" position. The appointment is expected to begin in the Spring of 2009. The initial offer is for three years and renewable for a second term of two years. Applications from all fields of theoretical physics are welcome. Some amount of starting fund and travel money will be granted with the offer. A staff scientist with a satisfactory performance will be entitled to hire a postdoctoral fellow to work with him/her starting from the third year. An interested applicant should submit his/her CV and a list of publications to Ms. Sherry Pang at shpang@phys.cts.nthu.edu.tw. In addition, the applicant should arrange to have three letters of recommendation sent to the same email address. The deadline for applications and letters of recommendation is Dec 31, 2008. For more information about NCTS and the position, please visit http://phys.cts.nthu.edu.tw or contact Prof. Chung-Yu Mou at "mou@phys.nthu.edu.tw".
Postdoctoral and Non-tenure Junior Scientist Position AvailableApplications are invited for postdoctoral and non-tenure junior scientist positions at the Physics Division of National Center for Theoretical Sciences (NCTS) in Hsinchu, Taiwan. The scientific activities at NCTS are carried out by a number of focus groups. Details about the focus groups and their research interests and activities are posted on our web-site at “http://phys.cts.nthu.edu.tw”. The applicants in all areas of theoretical physics are urged to contact first the coordinator or members of the focus group to find out if his/her research interests match the research focus of the group. The successful candidate is expected to work closely with one or more focus groups. The initial appointment may last for one or two years depending upon the qualification of the candidate and renewable up to a total of three years.
