We would like you to establish a close network of research activities within the university, with the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf and the international network of zero-power and research reactors. Active and creative participation in the Competence Center East for Nuclear Technology and in the National Center for Radiation Research in Oncology (OncoRay) is an important component of the appointment. The acquisition of third-party funding and participation in academic self-administration is common practice at the Faculty of Mechanical Science and Engineering, and you will demonstrate your ability and willingness to do so with your application. You (m/f/x) will represent the department in research and teaching within the degree programs Mechanical Engineering, Regenerative Energy Systems, Industrial Engineering and Management as well as in distance learning in close cooperation with all three faculties of the School of Engineering Sciences. Based on the principle that research and teaching form a unit, you share with us the aspiration to continuously develop teaching, for example in reactor physics, the design of nuclear reactors, nuclear measurement technology, etc., while integrating modern didactic concepts. In view of the increasing importance of CO2-neutral energy technologies and technologies for the production of hydrogen, this professorship will play a central role within the climate-neutral energy strategy and in strengthening the Energy, Mobility and Environment research profile line at TU Dresden.

We are looking for someone with an international scientific track record in the fields of reactor physics (experiment, theory and calculation methods), nuclear and thermohydraulic design of nuclear reactors and safety research in energy plants. With your successful scientific work in a current field of the appointment area, your excellent research achievements with high development potential, your experience in teaching with particular didactic skills and your success in acquiring third-party funding, you will be internationally convincing. We are looking for a dynamic, committed and responsible research personality who inspires our students with a high level of motivation, helps to shape the profile of our faculty in a forward-looking way through relevant research experience and is capable of teaching in German and English in the field to be filled. The requirements for appointment, the official duties and the administrative status are governed by §§ 59, 69, 71 of the Act on Higher Education Institutions in the Free State of Saxony (SächsHSG) and the Regulations on Duties and Responsibilities of Institutes of Higher Education (HSDAVO).
