Search for University Jobs in Engineering

A postdoctoral position is open immediately in the area of neutron, gamma-ray, and ion detection from nuclear reactions as a part of a new program sponsored by the U.S. Advanced Research Project Agency - Energy (ARPA-E). Experience in modeling with Geant4, FLUKA, and/or MCNP and in data collection and analysis in the ROOT framework is desired for the position. U.S. citizenship or permanent residency is desired but not essential for this position.

Highly motivated candidates who recently obtained their Ph.D. in physics, nuclear engineering, or a related field are encouraged to contact Prof. Jovanovic with a resume and a statement of research objectives and career goals. The position also offers an option for the most accomplished candidates to transition to a research faculty position at the University of Michigan.

The Applied Nuclear Science Group (ansg.engin.umich.edu) participates in premier national research initiatives: NNSA Consortium for Monitoring, Technology, and Verification, NNSA Consortium for Nuclear Forensics, DTRA Interaction of Ionizing Radiation with Matter – University Research Alliance, and the ZEUS laser at U. Michigan – the highest power laser in the United States supported by the National Science Foundation.

Please contact Prof. Jovanovic (ijov@umich.edu) with your resume and a statement of your career goals.
