Postdoctoral 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó Opportunities

JILA believes science environments are collaborative environments. We therefore encourage scientists from around the world to join us at JILA as postdoctoral researchers. At JILA, researchers will benefit from the collaborative and welcoming environment.Ìý

Postdoctoral 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó Associateships are intended to provide advanced research training in the years immediately following the Ph.D. degree.

Postdoctoral 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó Associates

JILA hires postdoctoral researchers both through the 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó and through the National 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó Associates Program of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).

Through the 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó, JILA hires postdoctoral researchers whose scholarly qualifications, promise as research scientists, and research interests and experience support JILA's ongoing research programsÌýand goals. Postdoctoral 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó Associate positions provide advanced research experience in the years immediately following the Ph.D. degree. Associateships are generally offered for durations of a year or longer. Applicants from all countries are welcome. ÌýÌý

Postdoctoral appointments usually are awarded in support of ongoing research projects, but consideration of proposals for original research is not precluded. In any case, the recipients will work under the direction of a member of the permanent scientific staff of JILA. The latitude available to the 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó Associate is at the discretion of the project leader and may depend heavily on the source of financial support. 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó Associateships are supported by specific grants and contracts awarded by federal agencies including NSF, NASA, DOE, and DoD to individual members of JILA's scientific staff. All 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó Associates in JILA are appointed by the 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó at 91ÃÛÌÒ¸ó.

Financial Support: JILA postdocs receive competitive salaries and benefits.
