Dear Colleague,

The Université de Sherbrooke is seeking applications to fill one (1)
full-time regular professor position, at the junior or senior level,
in the field of theoretical quantum information in the Department of
Physics of the Faculty of Science, on the Main Campus of the
Université de Sherbrooke.

As part of its strategic plan, the Université de Sherbrooke has set
ambitious equity and diversity targets. In particular, it aims to
increase the proportion of women professors in engineering and science
to 20% by 2022. With regard to the pool of potential candidates, the
contribution to the achievement of institutional targets in terms of
diversity and equity will be taken into account by the selection
committee.

DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICS AND INSTITUT QUANTIQUE

The Université de Sherbrooke’s Institut Quantique, with grants from
the Canada First Research Excellence Fund and the Canada Foundation
for Innovation, is implementing a strategy aimed at scientific
breakthroughs in quantum computing, quantum materials and quantum
engineering. Within the Institut quantique, members of the Department
of Physics maintain close links with the Departments of Computer
Science, Mathematics and Electrical and Computer Engineering.
Researchers are members of the INstitut TRansdisciplinaire
d'Information Quantique and/or the Regroupement Québécois sur les
Matériaux de Pointe, as well as an Associated International Laboratory
between France and Canada on quantum circuits and quantum materials.
In addition to access to high-performance computational resources,
members have access to the Institut quantique's quantum computing
platform which includes access to a 65-qubit quantum computer. The new
hire will also benefit from the Institut quantique's new building,
which is conducive to theoretical research and facilitates
interactions.
