With the goal of promoting the development of the areas of Machine 
Learning and Data Science, the Institute for Mathematical and 
Computational Engineering (IMC) from the Pontificia Universidad Católica 
de Chile (UC) is offering one or more full-time positions at the 
assistant (tenure-track) or associate level. We invite applications from 
highly qualified candidates in the areas of Data Science, Machine 
Learning, Optimization, Statistics and Stochastics, although other areas 
from Computational Science and Engineering, Optimization and Applied 
Mathematics will also be considered.

The selected candidates will be expected to teach and contribute to the 
Mathematical and Computational Engineering curriculum, to conduct 
interdisciplinary research and to connect with other institutes in the 
University. Typical teaching load is three semester-long courses a year, 
at the graduate or undergraduate level, and priority will be given to 
courses required by the newly created Bachelor in Engineering in Data 
Science program. For the first year, selected candidates can opt for a 
reduced teaching load of only two courses. Command of Spanish is not 
required for applying, but the selected candidates are expected to start 
teaching in Spanish in the short term (maximum two years).

Starting salary is about US$48,000 per year, before taxes, health 
insurance, and pension fund contribution, at the assistant professor 
level. The University offers a startup funding support for the first 
3-years of tenure-track faculty.
