Tenure Track Opening:
The Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, invites applications for a full-time tenure track position in Predictive Modeling and Data Science at the Assistant Professor level to begin in the Fall semester of 2016. Candidates whose research interests complement the strengths of the Department's faculty in Applied Mathematics and Statistics are particularly encouraged to apply. Mathematicians and statisticians who work at the intersection of applied and computational mathematics, statistics and data science are especially encouraged to apply. Areas of interest include, but are not restricted to: Bayesian methods, computational probability, data assimilation methods, high-performance computing for complex systems, information theory, inverse problems, machine/statistical learning, Monte Carlo methods, non-parametric and "p > n" theory and methods, queueing systems and networks, stochastic algorithms and optimization, uncertainty quantification. We are seeking talented applicants qualified for an assistant professor position. Under exceptional circumstances, highly qualified candidates at other ranks may receive consideration.
Applicants must present strong evidence of outstanding research accomplishments and promise in both research and teaching. Applicants are required to have a Ph.D. in Mathematics, Statistics or a related field by the time of appointment. Information about the Department may be found at http://www.math.umass.edu.
Review of applications will begin on October 30, 2015 and continue until a suitable candidate pool has been identified. To apply, please submit the following required documents electronically through MathJobs.org: A cover letter, an AMS Standard Cover Sheet, a curriculum vitae, a publication list, a description of research, and a statement about teaching interests and experience. The applicant must also have at least four letters of recommendation submitted, of which one must support the applicant’s effectiveness as a teacher.
