The Physics Department of the University of California, Santa Barbara, is seeking candidates for a tenure-track faculty position at the Assistant Professor level in theoretical high energy physics, with an appointment to start in Fall of 2008. We are particularly interested in candidates with interests in phenomenological aspects of particle physics and related areas of astrophysics and cosmology.

The ideal candidate will benefit from interactions with the strong existing groups in high energy theory and experiment, as well as the presence of the Kavli Institute for Theoretical Physics. Candidates are expected to have a Ph.D. in physics or a closely related field, and will teach a range of courses in the physics department. The department is committed to identifying excellent candidates who can contribute to the diversity of the academic community. Candidates should submit a statement of research interests, a curriculum vitae, and a list of publications, and should arrange for at least three letters of recommendation to be sent to:
