<br>
With the goal of promoting the development of the areas of Machine
Learning<br>
and Data Science, the Institute for Mathematical and Computational<br>
Engineering (IMC) from the Pontificia Universidad Católica de
Chile (UC) is<br>
offering one or more full-time positions at the assistant
(tenure-track) or<br>
associate level. We invite applications from highly qualified
candidates in<br>
the areas of Data Science, Machine Learning, Optimization,
Statistics and<br>
Stochastics, although other areas from Computational Science,
Engineering<br>
and Applied Mathematics will also be considered.<br>
<br>
The selected candidates will be expected to teach and contribute
to the<br>
Mathematical and Computational Engineering curriculum, to conduct<br>
interdisciplinary research and to connect with other institutes in
the<br>
University. Typical teaching load is three semester-long courses a
year, at<br>
the graduate or undergraduate level, and priority will be given to
courses<br>
required by the newly created Licentiate in Data Science
Engineering<br>
program. For the first year, selected candidates can opt for a
reduced<br>
teaching load of only two courses. Command of Spanish is not
required for<br>
applying, but the selected candidates are expected to start
teaching in<br>
Spanish in the short term (maximum two years).<br>
<br>
*About IMC*<br>
<br>
The IMC was created as a joint endeavor between the School of
Engineering<br>
and the Faculty of Mathematics of UC in Santiago. The Institute is<br>
advancing towards becoming a leading actor in the area of applied<br>
mathematics in Latin America, by:<br>
<br>
- developing cutting-edge research in all areas mentioned above;<br>
- addressing complex problems in coordination with other
disciplines;<br>
- training highly-qualified students with a solid background in
science<br>
and engineering methods;<br>
- establishing networks of collaborations with leading research<br>
institutions around the world;<br>
- and actively transferring knowledge to society in the form of<br>
technological development and outreach.<br>
<br>
The IMC is responsible for the Licentiate in Data Science
Engineering and<br>
the Mathematical Engineering programs at UC, and is in the process
of<br>
creating graduate programs in Mathematical and Computational
Engineering<br>
leading to masters and doctoral degrees.<br>
<br>
Further information about the Institute can be found at imc.uc.cl<br>
<br>
*About UC*<br>
<br>
The Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile is one of the leading
research<br>
and educational institutions in Latin America. As members of IMC,
the<br>
selected candidates will be able to enjoy a very active research<br>
environment, with challenging applications in several sectors, as
well as<br>
being able to interact with the best students in Chile. Further
information<br>
about UC can be found at <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.uc.cl/">http://www.uc.cl/</a>><br>

*Salary*<br>
<br>
Starting salary is about US$48,000 per year, before taxes, health<br>
insurance, and pension fund contribution, at the assistant
professor level.<br>
The University also offers startup funding of about US$10,000 to
support<br>
the candidate’s research during the first 3-years of tenure-track
faculty.<br>
<br>
This salary is increased every two years for those academics who
receive an<br>
evaluation at the highest possible rank. Most funding projects
existing in<br>
Chile also provide extra salary for academics. Additional income
can also<br>
be obtained by participating in professional teaching programs and
tech<br>
transfer projects of IMC.<br>
