Faculty Positions

Thanks to the recent round of new faculty allocations (the University created 40 new faculty posts), the QISS group is seeking faculty in experimental quantum science.

More specifically: (from the advertising material)

Macquarie University's Concentration of Research Excellence in Quantum Information Science and Security (QISS), currently comprises of eight staff with expertise in theoretical and experimental quantum science.  The QISS group includes faculty from physics, computer science, and engineering and participates in large research projects such as the Centre for Quantum Computer Technology (Australian Research Council), Qubit Applications (European Commission), and a number of other multinational projects in quantum information science. The physics department is also host to substantial research efforts in photonics (including participation in the ARC Centre of Excellence CUDOS), astronomy and condensed matter physics.

The The University wishes to expand the experimental component of the QISS research effort and is offering two continuing posts (level B/C: Lecturer/Senior Lecturer), in experimental quantum science. Applicants with expertise in the areas of:

  • experimental quantum optics
  • quantum communications,
  • condensed matter quantum science including
    • quantum dots,
    • superconducting quantum science,  
    • diamond related quantum science, or in
  • experimental quantum science using
    • trapped neutral or charged atoms,

are particularly invited to apply.
