Dear Colleagues,

I am writing to request your help in a search for a faculty position 
that we are about to conduct. The Department of Space Science is seeking 
an outstanding scientist and teacher to fill a tenure-track assistant 
professor position in the field of low-temperature plasma (LTP) science, 
broadly defined. The position is expected to support and complement a 
recently awarded National Science Foundation Established Program in 
Support of Competitive Research (EPSCoR) grant in low-temperature plasma 
physics. Within the general field of LTP science, areas of particular 
interest to the Department include solar physics, interplanetary and 
heliospheric physics, magnetospheric physics, physics of the very local 
interstellar medium, dusty and/or complex plasma, gas discharge physics, 
and plasma interactions with soft and/or hard matter. The ideal 
candidate will complement existing strengths within the Department while 
expanding significantly research capabilities and competencies.

We are seeking someone who uses any of theory, modeling, or observations 
to address one or more of the areas of interest. The successful 
candidate will teach graduate-level courses primarily, will develop at 
least two new advanced graduate level courses reflecting their research 
expertise, and will mentor graduate students pursuing MSc and PhD 
degrees and undergraduate students in summer programs. It is expected 
that the successful candidate will have a PhD or equivalent degree in a 
field appropriate to the job description above and will pursue 
independent research funding. Collaboration is encouraged within the 
Department of Space Science, CSPAR and with the NASA Marshall Space 
Flight Center.

To apply for this position, a candidate should submit a complete CV, a 
list of publications, a list of awarded research grants, a research 
statement, a teaching statement, and arrange to have three letters of 
reference sent to the SPA Faculty Search Committee 2018, Department of 
Space Science, CramerResearch Hall, 320 Sparkman Drive, Huntsville, AL 
35899 or by email to vab0002 en uah.edu <mailto:vab0002 en uah.edu>with the 
header Faculty Search Committee 2018.
