Department of Applied Mathematics Mathematics Prestigious Postdoctoral Fellowships Applications are invited for a limited number of distinguished postdoctoral fellowships awarded by the Faculty of Mathematics at the University of Waterloo. The fellowships can be held in any of the five academic units of the Mathematics Faculty and have an anticipated start date of September 1, 2021 (or earlier). These positions are prestigious, two-year, research focussed, fellowships with a salary of $75,000/annum and an associated research grant of $15,000/annum. In addition to engaging in research collaboration with a faculty member (or members) in the department, the successful candidate will have the opportunity to gain teaching experience (if desired). Candidates should indicate in their cover letter the names of faculty member(s) they propose to work with. These are highly selective fellowships (adjudicated by a Faculty-wide selection committee) and will be based on the candidate's outstanding research potential, availability of a supervisor, and fit with a research area in the department. All interested recent, outstanding PhDs are encouraged to apply. The Department of Applied Mathematics has 30 faculty members, whose research interests include scientific computing, control theory, differential equations and dynamical systems, fluid dynamics, mathematical biology and medicine, and mathematical physics. The department has a substantial graduate program with over 120 graduate students pursuing Masters or PhD degrees, and strong undergraduate programs in applied mathematics and mathematical physics. More information about the department can be found at http://math.uwaterloo.ca/applied-mathematics/. Applications for these fellowships are through the website MathJobs.org. Candidates should submit a cover letter, curriculum vitae and a one-page research statement to www.MathJobs.org. Applicants should also arrange for three letters of recommendation, to be submitted through www.MathJobs.org website. The application deadline is January 1, 2022. We appreciate all replies to this advertisement, but only applicants under consideration will be contacted. The University of Waterloo regards diversity as an integral part of academic excellence and is committed to employment equity and accessibility for all employees. As such, we encourage applications from women, Indigenous (First Nations, Métis and Inuit) peoples, persons with disabilities, members of diverse gender identities, and others who may contribute to the further diversification of ideas. At Waterloo, you will have the opportunity to work across disciplines and collaborate with an international community of scholars and a diverse student body, situated in a rapidly growing community that has been termed a “hub of innovation”. All qualified candidates are encouraged to apply; however, Canadians and permanent residents will receive priority in the recruitment process. The University of Waterloo understands the impact that career interruptions (e.g. parental leave, leave due to illness) can have on a candidate's achievement and encourages potential candidates to explain in their application the impact this may have on their record; this information will be taken into careful consideration during the assessment process. The University of Waterloo (including the Waterloo, Kitchener, and Cambridge campuses) is situated on the Haldimand Tract, land that was promised to the Haudenosaunee of the Six Nations of the Grand River, and is within the territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabe, and Haudenosaunee peoples. |
