Dear Colleagues,

The UNC-CH School of Data Science and Society and the Department of 
Mathematics invite applications for a joint Assistant Professor 
(tenure-track) position effective July 1, 2024.  This search focuses on 
candidates with expertise at the intersection of applied mathematics and 
data science.   We welcome candidates that develop and apply expertise 
in data-driven mathematical modeling and computation in diverse areas 
(e.g., biology, chemistry, engineering, fluid mechanics, medicine, 
physics).  The data-driven emphasis aims to incorporate computational 
data-science tools such as mechanistic AI and machine learning, 
optimization, geometric data analysis, network science, imaging, 
mathematical modeling, solutions of inverse problems, etc.  Priority 
will be on candidates whose work both develops core data science and 
applied mathematics machinery and establishes interdisciplinary 
collaborations across the UNC campus. A Ph.D. in Mathematics, Applied 
Mathematics, or a closely related field is required. Postdoctoral 
experience, outstanding research promise, and dedication to excellent 
teaching are expected.  Duties of this position will include teaching at 
the undergraduate and graduate levels, service, mentoring students, and 
continued strong and independent research.
