[Job-offers-cs] University of Maryland, Baltimore County Postdoctoral Positions in Mathematics and Statistics

[Pekka Orponen]

The Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of 
Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) has an opening for several 
postdoctoral scholar positions, starting in fall 2025. The appointments 
are for fixed terms, but renewable upon satisfactory performance and 
funding availability. Candidates should have finished their Ph.D. in 
applied mathematics, statistics, biostatistics, machine learning, or a 
related field before their appointment start date. Successful candidates 
are expected to carry out research, collaborate with faculty members, 
apply for external funding, and teach courses.

Candidates in all areas of applied mathematics and statistics may apply. 
Our interests include but are not limited to analysis and computation of 
partial differential equations and applications; stochastic processes 
and applications (e.g. mathematical biology, data science); mathematical 
biology with modeling and analysis of cellular dynamics (e.g. clustered 
cell migration, neuromechanical locomotion, network synchronization), 
parameter estimation (e.g. in epidemiological spread, chemical reaction 
networks), emergent behavior (e.g. flocking, swarming); optimization 
theory and numerical optimization with applications to data science; 
high-dimensional statistics; Bayesian statistics; resampling techniques; 
digital twins; uncertainty quantification; statistical process control; 
foundations of machine learning and artificial intelligence; statistical 
applications to biomedical problems and precision medicine.

Three specific research focuses will be given priority:

● Applied Mathematics or Statistics: in particular relating to data 
science applications - Apply using: apply.interfolio.com/158844 
<http://apply.interfolio.com/158844>

● Mathematics: Modeling, Analysis, and Simulation of fluid-structure 
interaction models - Apply using: apply.interfolio.com/158841 
<http://apply.interfolio.com/158841>

● Statistics: Foundations of digital twins and uncertainty 
quantification, with applications to neuroscience problems Apply using 
apply.interfolio.com/158801 <http://apply.interfolio.com/158801>

Applicants for all positions should submit (a) a cover letter; (b) a 
curriculum vitae that includes publications; (c) a description of 
research interests and research plans; (d) a brief teaching statement; 
(e) a statement of commitment to inclusive excellence; and (e) have at 
least three letters of recommendation submitted on their behalf.

Applicants should apply using: Mathematics or Statistics PostDoc - 
apply.interfolio.com/158844 <http://apply.interfolio.com/158844>

Mathematics PostDoc - apply.interfolio.com/158841
