Dear Colleague, I wish to draw your attention to an opening of a tenure track position in the Department of Astronomy of the Instituto de Fisica of Guanajuato University. This is the third position we are offering this year (two of them due to recent departures of colleagues, one of them a new position). Since our (almost identical) offers in the AAS Job Register (in March and June/July this year) did not cause an overwhelming amount of response, I am trying this method to spread the news, and would like to ask you to display this offer at your place of work and forward this message to anyone whom you consider appropriate. I would suggest that any interested candiate should first contact me (at heinz@astro.ugto.mx) about the details of the application forms and to clarify any questions they may have, before submitting their definite application documents to the email addresses indicated in the attached announcement. A spanish version (in much more burocratic style, unfortunately, but implied by our University rules) is also available from our web page (http://www.astro.ugto.mx).
