    Default job background
    Description

    A global higher education leader in innovative teaching, research and public service, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill consistently ranks as one of the nation's top public universities.

    Known for its beautiful campus, world-class medical care, commitment to the arts and top athletic programs, Carolina is an ideal place to teach, work and learn.


    One of the best college towns and best places to live in the United States, Chapel Hill has diverse social, cultural, recreation and professional opportunities that span the campus and community.


    University employees can choose from a wide range of professional training opportunities for career growth, skill development and lifelong learning and enjoy exclusive perks that include numerous retail and restaurant discounts, savings on local child care centers and special rates for performing arts events.

    Primary Purpose of Organizational Unit

    Designing and evaluating a new x-ray imaging technology for potential use in image guided radiation therapy. Work includes equipment design, data collection, and analysis.


    Our primary mission is providing instruction of the highest quality in physics and astronomy to undergraduate and graduate students at UNC-CH.

    Training in physics is fundamental among the natural sciences because it provides understanding of the forces governing the structure of matter, from subatomic particles to the large-scale structure of the universe.

    Our departmental instructional mission spans all segments of the student community. Over 60% of all college graduates from UNC-CH have taken a course in our department.


    Among them:

    undergraduate liberal arts majors who should master the power of quantitative reasoning; undergraduates seeking a degree in another of the natural sciences, who need physics as a foundation for their advanced scientific training; the small number of undergraduates who major in physics, to whom we provide broad and rigorous training.

    Our graduate education and research advances frontiers of knowledge at the two extremes of space and time, from the very small) the realm of particle physics) to the very large (the realm of astronomy, while expanding the boundaries of knowledge in the many subfields spanning length scales between.

    Forefront physics and astronomy research requires access to well-equipped laboratories and extensive computing capabilities; it also must be supported by comprehensive and accessible library collections.

    Again, in research at this advanced level, the bridging aspect of physics provides basic interdisciplinary insight for many other sciences.

    This instructional mission is supported by a strong managerial, administrative, and technical staff.

    Duties of these employees range from budget planning and management for the numerous research grants held by faculty in the department to maintaining course and student records.

    These activities are usually accomplished in a standard 40- hour week schedule.

    Position Summary


    The responsibilities of this research position include designing and evaluating a new x-ray imaging technology for potential use in image guided radiation therapy under the supervision of faculty members.
