*** this fellowship has been closed and new applications are no longer accepted. ***| The Division of Applied Mathematics at Brown University invites applications for
two RTG Postdoctoral Fellowships beginning July 1, 2023. The appointments are
for a fixed term of three years, with a teaching load of two courses per year. All
applicants must be US citizens, nationals, or permanent residents, who have
held their PhD for no more than two years as of January 1, 2023 or are graduate
students who will complete their PhD requirements by the position start date. The positions are funded partially by the NSF-funded Research Training Group
“Mathematics of Information, Data, and Applications to Science”. Our research
has a strong interdisciplinary flavor, combining foundational stochastic, statistical,
combinatorial, dynamical, and computational work with concrete applications.
Applied projects will involve collaborations with domain scientists from other
disciplines, including astrophysics, biology, engineering, and neuroscience. The
RTG is part of a vibrant community of researchers at Brown who work on data
science, and we invite you to find out more about this community by visiting
Brown’s Data Science Initiative. In addition to research and teaching, RTG
Postdoctoral Fellows will have the opportunity to mentor graduate and
undergraduate students and participate in RTG activities. More information about
the RTG and the applied mathematics department can be found on the RTG
website and the department website, respectively. We value diversity and inclusion as essential to achieving excellence, and
especially encourage applications from those belonging to groups traditionally
underrepresented in the mathematical sciences. We will use past record and
potential for future contributions in research and teaching, alignment with our
research goals, potential for engagement with the RTG activities, and
contributions to diversity, equity, and inclusion as criteria for this search. To apply, please submit through MathJobs an AMS cover sheet, a cover letter
that includes a discussion of their interest in being part of our RTG, a curriculum
vitae with publication list, a concise description of research interests and goals, a
concise description of teaching interests and goals including the applicant's
experience with or ideas for teaching in a diverse and inclusive classroom, and,
optionally, a description of contributions to diversity, equity, and inclusion. We
also require three letters of recommendation, with at least one letter addressing
the applicant's teaching experience or potential. Consideration of applications will begin on November 14, 2022. Inquiries should
be sent electronically to Caroline Klivans (caroline_klivans@brown.edu). Brown University is committed to fostering a diverse and inclusive academic
global community; as an EEO/AA employer, Brown considers applicants for
employment without regard to, and does not discriminate on the basis of, gender,
race, protected veteran status, disability, or any other legally protected status.
