Faculty Positions at Institute of Physics (IOP), Chinese Academy of Sciences

The Institute of Physics (IOP), Chinese Academy of Sciences, is China's premier research institution in condensed matter physics and related fields. With a history spanning over nine decades, IOP has evolved into a comprehensive, multidisciplinary research organization dedicated to both fundamental and applied physics. The institute's current research activities concentrate on condensed matter physics, optical physics, atomic and molecular physics, plasma physics, soft matter physics, and condensed matter theory and computational physics. There are 12 laboratories and 8 centers in our research system together with a strong technical support system. More Information about IOP can be found at www.iop.cas.cn.

IOP is entering a period for rapid expansion of its research bases. We have multiple opening positions at all levels from junior Tenure-Track Assistant Professor to senior Full Professor in multiple research areas, broadly defined. We invite talented applicants who have the capacity or have exhibited the potential of running a world-recognized independent research program. In particular, IOP is making strong efforts to internationalize our faculty members from different culture and ethnic backgrounds. We welcome all applicants worldwide.
