<div><span>The <strong>Oden Institute for Computational Engineering
and Sciences</strong> and the </span><span><strong>Departments
of Computer Science and Mathematics</strong> in the </span><span>College
of Natural Sciences at <strong>The University of Texas at Austin</strong> have </span><span>an
opening for a tenured or tenure-track faculty position
beginning </span><span>Fall 2026 in the area of <strong>Scientific
Machine Learning and AI for </strong></span><span><strong>Science</strong>.
We seek candidates working on the mathematical and </span><span>computational
foundations of Scientific Machine Learning in a broad </span><span>sense.
Particular areas of interest include, but are not limited to, </span><span>development
and analysis of machine learning models for scientific </span><span>computing,
theory and algorithms for sampling, computational </span><span>techniques
for high-dimensional problems and inverse problems, </span><span>generative
AI applied to scientific problems, and large-scale </span><span>nonconvex
optimization methods used in machine learning. This search </span><span>is
being conducted jointly by the Oden Institute and the College
of </span><span>Natural Sciences as part of a campus-wide
commitment to expanding the </span><span>development of AI for
Science and Scientific Machine Learning at UT </span><span>Austin.
The successful candidate will be appointed in one of two </span><span>potential
home departments -- the Department of Computer Science or </span><span>the
Department of Mathematics -- based on their area of academic </span><span>expertise
and research interests. The successful candidate will have </span><span>half
of their teaching duties in the Oden Institute's Computational </span><span>Science,
Engineering and Mathematics (CSEM) graduate program and half </span><span>in
the Department. This position is open to applicants at all
ranks, </span><span>with a strong preference for hiring at the
assistant professor </span><span>level. </span></div>
