These diverse efforts are unified by the search for common physical principles underlying the emergence of functional behaviors that are essential for life.</p>\n\n\n<p>Fellows should be prepared to take advantage of the full collaborative research and mentoring opportunities at the Center, and must have completed their PhDs in a relevant field before starting the position.  Appointment will be at Associate Research Scholar rank; salary will be determined based on experience and qualifications. Appointments will be through the Department of Physics.  Appointments are for one year, with the expectation of reappointment pending satisfactory performance and continued funding, up to a total of three years.   We expect new Fellows to join us for the Fall semester of 2021; start dates as early as February 2021 are possible.

Other distinguished graduates include Michelle Obama, actors Jimmy Stewart and Brooke Shields, Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and Apollo astronaut Pete Conrad.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Princeton, which is consistently ranked among the world’s top 10 universities, is renowned for its campus’ park-like beauty as well as some of its landmark buildings, designed by some of America’s most well-known architects. For instance, its Lewis Library was designed by Frank Gehry and contains many of the university’s science collections. Its McCarter Theatre Center has won a Tony Award for the best regional theatre in the country.</p><p>Spread across 500 acres, the Princeton campus has about 180 buildings, including 10 libraries containing about 14 million holdings. It is popular with visitors, with about 800,000 people visiting its open campus each year, generating about $2 billion in revenue.</p><p>The Princeton area, which has a population of about 30,000 residents, is also something of a destination itself, with many attracted by its tree-lined streets and wide variety of shops, restaurants and parks.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The university is within easy reach of both New York City and Philadelphia, with the “Dinky” shuttle train providing a regular service lasting about one hour to both cities. Princeton regularly subsidises many student trips to concerts, plays and athletic events in the two cities.</p>","logoImg":"","logoImgSquare":"https://s3.ap-northeast-2.amazonaws.com/jobs.ac.kr/dev/images/psoieduskdj_933223586819.png","homepageUrl":"https://www.princeton.edu/","infoUrl":"https://www.timeshighereducation.com/world-university-rankings/princeton-university","country":"US","state":"New Jersey","location":"북아메리카","address":"Princeton, New Jersey, 08544, United States","phoneNumber":"+1 609-258-3000","faxNumber":"","type":1,"univType1":"대학","univType2":"대학교","univType3":"","univType4":"본교","establishedAt":"1746-01-05T00:00:00.000Z","count_majors":null,"count_students":null,"meta_competitiveness":"","publishState":1,"updatedAt":"2020-03-19T10:57:28.000Z","createdAt":"2020-03-04T20:13:07.000Z","default_1_bannerImage":null,"default_1_bannerImageMobile":null,"default_2_bannerImage":null,"default_2_bannerImageMobile":null,"default_3_bannerImage":null,"default_3_bannerImageMobile":null}}
