The Department of Mechanical and Process Engineering (www.mavt.ethz.ch) at ETH Zurich invites applications for the above-mentioned position.

Successful applicants must demonstrate an excellent international record of research accomplishments in solar energy science and engineering. The new professor is expected to establish an ambitious, world-class research program in the fast-evolving field of solar energy. We encourage applications from scientists and engineers from the entire spectrum of solar energy, from photo-, electro-, or thermo-chemical energy conversion to storage and utilization. Candidates should demonstrate a core area of scientific expertise and solid theoretical foundation with a strong motivation to apply this knowledge for the development of novel and efficient solar technologies. Examples include (but are not limited to) processes and devices for solar-driven production of electricity, fuels, and energy-intensive chemical commodities, as well as for the storage of solar energy. Successful candidates should hold a Ph.D. degree or equivalent in engineering or a related area and have an outstanding record of accomplishments in solar energy. Furthermore, a strong motivation and indisputable commitment to undergraduate (in German or English) and graduate (in English) teaching and the ability to lead a research group are expected.

Assistant professorships have been established to promote the careers of younger scien­tists. ETH Zurich implements a tenure track system equivalent to that of other top international universities.

ETH Zurich is an equal opportunity and family-friendly employer, values diversity, and is responsive to the needs of dual-career couples.
