The newly funded NSF Research Training Group in Computational Mathematics for Data Science within the Department of Mathematics at Emory University invites applications for a Postdoctoral Fellowship position. Appointments are normally for two years with the possibility of renewal for a third year. Applicants must be citizens, nationals, or permanent residents of the United States, have a Ph.D. in Mathematics or a closely related field (the Ph.D. must be completed by September 1, 2023 for a Fall 2023 start, or by January 1, 2024 for a Spring 2024 start), and show evidence or promise of excellence in research and teaching. 

We are especially interested in candidates with research interests broadly related to data science (e.g., data assimilation, machine learning, numerical optimization, linear algebra, and PDEs). Candidates must also have a strong background in numerical analysis and scientific computing.

The successful candidate is also expected to engage in all RTG activities. Postdoctoral Fellows will have the opportunity to teach two courses per year (one in Fall and one in Spring semesters), conduct research, collaborate with faculty, and work with undergraduate and graduate students in our dynamic computational mathematics research group. RTG Postdoctoral Fellowships include an allowance for travel and computing equipment and access to state-of-the-art computing resources, including GPU clusters.

Applications should be sent via Interfolio at http://apply.interfolio.com/111387. Informal inquiries are also invited by email at mathfellows@listserv.cc.emory.edu. Screening starts immediately and will continue until positions are filled. For full consideration, the following materials should be sent:

  • Cover Letter that identifies a research area
  • Curriculum Vitae 
  • Statement of Research 
  • Statement of Teaching
  • Statement on Importance of Contributing to Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion
  • Three or more letters of recommendations with at least one letter addressing the candidate’s teaching potential
