CEDAR email: SuperDARN faculty position at the University of Saskatchewan

[Kathryn McWilliams]

The Department of Physics and Engineering Physics 
<https://artsandscience.usask.ca/physics/> at the University of 
Saskatchewan <https://www.usask.ca/> seeks applications from qualified 
individuals for a tenure-track faculty position in Space Physics at the 
rank of Assistant Professor.

We are seeking candidates who demonstrate promise for excellence in 
research, teaching, graduate student supervision, securing competitive 
external research funding, and engaging in professional service and 
outreach. Candidates should have demonstrated expertise in space radar 
research using SuperDARN (Super Dual Auroral Radar Network) and show 
potential for leadership within the collaboration.

Our Department leads the Canadian SuperDARN operation and chairs the 
international ten-nation SuperDARN collaboration. SuperDARN Canada 
<https://superdarn.ca/> operations are supported by the CFI MSI (Major 
Science Initiatives) program 
<https://www.innovation.ca/apply-manage-awards/funding-opportunities/major-science-initiatives-fund>, 
making SuperDARN Canada a national research facility.SuperDARN Canada is 
also supported by the Canadian Space Agency and Innovation Saskatchewan.

The Institute of Space and Atmospheric Science 
<http://artsandscience.usask.ca/physics/facilities/isas.php>, with its 
seven Physics & Engineering Physics faculty members, is the largest and 
most comprehensive Solar-Terrestrial Physics and Atmospheric Science 
Institute in Canada. Three space physics faculty in ISAS currently focus 
on magnetospheric and ionospheric remote sensing with radars, providing 
direct collaborative opportunities for the successful 
candidate.Collaborations with researchers specializing in lower layers 
of the atmosphere are possible here.Collaborative opportunities also 
exist through the University of Saskatchewan’s membership in UCAR 
<https://www.ucar.edu/>.

The Department of Physics and Engineering Physics is responsible for 
undergraduate programs in Physics (B.Sc.), an accredited Engineering 
Physics program (B.E.), supports an interdisciplinary program in 
Mathematical Physics (B.Sc.), and offers thesis-based M.Sc. and Ph.D. 
graduate programs in Physics. Holding P.Eng. licensure or eligibility to 
apply for licensure is an asset for a candidate.

We encourage individuals from equity-deserving groups, including women, 
members of racialized minorities, Indigenous persons, and persons with 
disabilities, to apply. Applications from Indigenous persons and women 
are especially encouraged. The Department of Physics and Engineering 
Physics is committed to excellence in research and recognizes that 
equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) are fundamental to this goal. 
Recruitment will be guided by the strong commitment of the University of 
Saskatchewan, the College of Arts and Science, and the Department of 
Physics and Engineering Physics to EDI.
