The International Research Training Group (IRTG) "Imaging Quantum Systems: Photons, Molecules, Materials (IQS)" is a research program funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) at the University of Rostock, in collaboration with the University of Ottawa and the University of Calgary in Canada. The IRTG aims to investigate the structure and dynamics of quantum mechanical systems using state-of-the-art experimental and theoretical methods. A key focus is close collaboration with our Canadian partner universities to develop innovative approaches for studying photons, molecules, and materials. The graduate program provides an excellent platform for international research and collaboration in a highly topical and dynamic field of science.

THESE ARE YOUR TASKS:

conduct independent research on a topic closely related to the IRTG's focus on imaging quantum systems
investigate the fundamental quantum behaviour in photonic or molecular systems
presentation of research results at conferences and workshops
publication of research findings in high-ranking international journals
supervision and guidance of Master's students in their research projects (ideally also PhD students)
participation in coordinating and organising graduate programmes, workshops and conferences within the IRTG framework
involvement in teaching
acquisition of third-party funding

THIS MAKES YOU A GOOD FIT:

completed academic university degree (Staatsexamen, Diplom, Master's, Engineering degree or equivalent) in physics, at least with good results
doctorate with an experimental focus in quantum physics or a closely related scientific field
solid expertise in at least two of the following areas: quantum optics, nanophotonics, integrated photonics, quantum information/communication, attosecond laser physics, ultrafast spectroscopy
proficient in spoken and written English; basic knowledge of the German language
experience in supervising and teaching students (e.g., in laboratories, tutorials, or practical courses)
experience in publishing and conducting independent research
strong ability to work in interdisciplinary and international research teams

WE AS AN EMPLOYER:

Equal opportunities are important to us. We welcome applications from suitable severely disabled people or people from traditionally underrepresented groups. We aim to increase the proportion of women in research and teaching and therefore encourage suitably qualified women to apply. We welcome applications from people of other nationalities or with a migration background.
