Opportunities

Assistant Professor Position

The Department of Astronomy at Yale University invites applications for a tenure-track Assistant Professor position in Astronomy. We are especially interested in candidates focused on the study of exoplanets. The position is expected to begin on July 1, 2022. 

The application deadline is Monday, November 1, 2021. 

Postdoctoral Position

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral position in the Dragonfly team. The Dragonfly Telephoto Array is a low surface brightness-optimized telescope in New Mexico. The array currently consists of 48 high-end telephoto lenses, equipped with broad band filters. It is equivalent to a refractor with a 1m diameter and a focal ratio of f/0.4. We are performing a survey of the entire SDSS area, yielding a unique resource of low surface brightness images of all objects in the extragalactic Northern sky. Simultaneously we are building a 120-lens ultra-narrow band filter array, with the aim of studying the circumgalactic medium.

The application deadline is November 30, 2021.
