We are looking for an internationally leading researcher who will strengthen and shape the scientific activities at ZAH in the next decades in the field of formation and evolution of galaxies, galaxy clusters and their co-evolution with supermassive black holes, with focus on observations of active galactic nuclei at high redshift. We expect extensive experience with state-of-the-art observational facilities, including familiarity with integral field spectroscopy.

The ZAH is involved in a number of highly visible international projects, like Gaia, SDSS, Rubin/LSST, LCO, and Euclid. We expect the new professor to contribute to some of these, to initiate new ones, and to make particular use of the JWST and ELT observational facilities. Participation in the excellence cluster STRUCTURES is highly desired.
The new colleague is expected to participate at the usual extent to the department’s teaching programme, and in its academic administration.
Prerequisites for a successful application are a doctoral degree in physics or astronomy, teaching experience and (in accordance with Article 47, Paragraph 2 of the Higher Education Law of the Federal State of Baden-Württemberg) a habilitation, a successfully evaluated junior professorship, or equivalent qualifications.
