Temporary Lecturership in Theoretical Physics

The salary will be on a scale of up to £25,699 (as at 1^st August, 2004) with higher discretionary points in exceptional circumstances.

The successful candidate will be required to teach part of the theoretical physics graduate lecture course, to assist with the supervision of graduate students, and to conduct original research. The research interests of candidates should overlap those of the Particle Theory Group, with some preference for the general area of astroparticle physics.

Applicants should submit four copies (one in the case of applicants based overseas) of a letter of application supported by a curriculum vitae, a description of teaching experience, a list of publications and a statement of research interests, together with the names of three referees (not more than two from the same institution).
