    Participation in some of the Roman Space Telescope, and the Rubin Observatory LSST DESC collaborations while at Baylor is expected.

    More information on Prof Rose's research can be found at

    These positions have an initial appointment for two years, renewable upon mutual agreement and availability of funding. The position can begin immediately, but is expected to begin by the start of the Fall 2024 semester. Candidates must have a Ph.
    D. by the date of appointment in astronomy, physics, or a relevant field.

    Applicants should prepare a cover letter, a current CV with a list of publications, a research statement of less than three pages describing past accomplishments and research goals, and arrange for three letters of recommendation to be sent.

    Applicants are encouraged to describe in their cover letter how their scholarship and experience would contribute to an inclusive community.
