Faculty Position in Data Science and Applied Mathematics

The Center for Data Science (CDS) and the Department of Mathematics within
the Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences seeks candidates for one (1)
open-rank joint faculty position, anticipated to begin in September 2023.
Faculty members are expected to be outstanding scholars and to participate
in teaching at all levels from undergraduate to doctoral.

We seek to develop our strength at the interface between machine learning
and science, leveraging advances in data science.  Machine learning has the
possibility of transforming our ability to model multi-scale physics,
chemistry and biology. We are particularly focused on expanding in the area
of data science for physics applications (e.g., fluid dynamics, climate
science) and computational applied sciences with machine learning.
Exceptional candidates from other data-science relevant areas will be
considered as well. Successful candidates could potentially hold cross
appointments with physics.

This search is part of a cluster hire in Predicting Climate Change and its
Impacts: From the Global to Urban Scale that includes the departments of
Mathematics and Computer Science in the Courant Institute of Mathematical
Sciences, Civil and Urban Engineering in the Tandon School of Engineering,
and the Center for Data Science. Advances in climate science prediction
will require transformative developments in and between mathematics, data
science, computer science, physics, engineering and geoscience. More
information about this cluster, and NYU’s broader Faculty Cluster Hiring
Initiative, can be found on the Faculty Cluster Initiative
<https://cfa.hosting.nyu.edu/recruitment/faculty-cluster-initiative/>,
and Cluster
Proposals <https://cfa.hosting.nyu.edu/recruitment/cluster-proposals/> pages.
Additional faculty positions will be advertised as part of the cluster,
with the intention of creating a diverse, inter-disciplinary cohort to
devise cutting-edge research and curricular development. Inquiries about
this position and its role within the cluster should be addressed to
climateclusterhire at nyu.edu.

CDS is the focal point for NYU’s university-wide initiative in data science
and statistics, established 9 years ago, and one of the country’s leading
data science research and training facilities. CDS is a vibrant space with
about 21 jointly appointed faculty and 10 associated faculty across
computer science, mathematics, engineering, neuroscience, linguistics,
politics, psychology, physics, biology and business; a list of affiliated
faculty spanning a wide range of NYU’s schools and departments, a highly
successful undergraduate and Master’s programs, and one of the first Data
Science PhD programs. CDS’s research focuses on tools and methods at the
intersection between applied mathematics, data science, high-dimensional
statistics, machine learning, optimization, and several data-driven
application areas.

The Courant Institute’s Mathematics Department is a world-renowned center
for applied mathematics (including math for data science and machine
learning), scientific computing, PDEs, analysis, probability, geometry and
other fields. Courant is also the home of NYU’s department of Computer
Science, which is a leader in machine learning and AI, among other fields.

CDS and the Courant Institute (both Math and CS) host vibrant
interdisciplinary PhD programs and a number of faculty hold joint
appointments at the Center for Data Science and the Courant Institute.
Qualifications

PhD in applied math and/or applied physics or a related quantitative field
is required.
Application Instructions

Please include a cover letter, CV, a short statement of your research and
teaching interests, and at least three confidential recommendation letters.
We encourage applicants to include a brief statement describing how your
research, teaching, and service contributes to diversity and inclusion.

Applications and supporting documents received by Friday, December 16 will
receive full consideration.

Please submit your application via the Climate Cluster Position Interfolio
application page <https://apply.interfolio.com/115578>.
