About this position

  • The Condensed Matter and Quantum Information Theory groups, led by Laura
  • Classen, Michael Knap, Johannes Knolle, Barbara Kraus, Sanjay
  • Moudgalya, Marko Ljubotina, Frank Pollmann, and Peter Rabl expect to
  • appoint one or more postdoctoral fellows in Fall 2027 (with flexible
  • starting date). We are looking for candidates who are interested in
  • condensed matter and quantum information theory including: quantum
  • many-body systems, entanglement, nonequilibrium quantum dynamics,
  • quantum materials, strongly correlated electrons, topological phases
  • of matter, superconductivity, quantum optics, ultracold quantum gases,
  • quantum simulation, quantum computing, and verification of quantum
  • devices. For inquiries, please send your curriculum vitae and a brief
  • research statement. Candidates should also arrange for letters of
  • recommendation to be submitted from two scientists familiar with their
  • work. Applications and supporting material should be submitted on this
  • website by November 22nd, 2026. However, later applications may also
  • be considered. Successful candidates will be strongly encouraged to
  • join ongoing international collaborations with leading experimental
  • and theoretical researchers. Further information can be found at
  • https://www.ph.nat.tum.de/cmt/. The postdoctoral fellowship from the
  • Condensed Matter and Quantum Theory groups at TUM is planned to be
  • offered every Fall. Remuneration will be based on the collective
  • agreement for the Civil Service in the federal states (TV-L). TUM is
  • an equal opportunity employer. The university strives to raise the
  • proportion of women and explicitly encourages applications from
