The Office for Young Astronomers (OYA) of the International Astronomical Union (IAU) invites suitable candidates to apply for the vacant post of Deputy Director of the International School for Young Astronomers (ISYA). The position is not salaried, but all travel and accommodation costs will be covered. The closing date for applications is 22 May 2016.

The ISYA is a three-week international postgraduate school that preferentially considers applicants from regions where students have less opportunity to be exposed to up-to-date astrophysics (mainly, but not exclusively, from astronomically developing countries).

Applications and nominations should be sent by the closing date to the Chair of the ISYA Deputy Director Search Committee (IDDSC): oengvold@astro.uio.no. Questions may also directed to that address.

Further details of the post may be found here.
