[Met-jobs] Professorship (W3) of Theoretical Atmospheric Physics

[Regina Huehn <dekanat@physik.kit.edu>]

The Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) is the result of the merger 
of the Universität Karlsruhe (TH) and the Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe. 
It is a unique institution in Germany, which combines the missions of a 
university with those of a national research center of the Helmholtz 
Association. With 9000 employees KIT is one of the largest research and 
education institutions worldwide.

The Physics Department at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology invites 
applications for the newly established position of a

Professor (W3) of Theoretical Atmospheric Physics

at the Institute for Meteorology and Climate Research - Atmospheric 
Trace Gases and Remote Sensing (IMK-ASF). The position should be filled 
as soon as possible.

We are looking for excellent candidates with very good international 
credentials in numerical modelling. The research foci should cover 
actual fields of atmospheric research, such as atmospheric dynamics, 
stratosphere-troposphere exchange, climate modelling or data 
assimilation, in particular by incorporating observational data from the 
upper troposphere to the mesosphere/lower thermosphere. An active 
participation in the Helmholtz programme Atmosphere and Climate is expected.

Teaching duties include appropriate participation in the lecture courses 
of our basic and advanced meteorology programmes in the Physics 
Department, in the Graduate School of the KIT Climate and Environment 
Center (GRACE), and possibly for students majoring in physics.

Applicants must have the degree of Habilitation or demonstrate 
equivalent scientific qualification as well as experience in teaching.

KIT aims to increase the number of female professors and especially 
welcomes applications from women.

Handicapped persons with equal qualifications will be preferred.

Applications with standard documentation, including a summary of past 
teaching, a research plan as well as a list of the five most important 
publications, should be sent by March 31st, 2012 to: Dekan der Fakultät 
für Physik, Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT), Campus Süd, 76128 
Karlsruhe.
