<p>Junior Professor (W1)
Mathematics of Uncertainty Quantification
(with Tenure Track W2)</p>
<p>at RWTH Aachen University, Faculty of Mathematics, Computer
Science
and Natural Sciences </p>
<p>We are seeking qualified applicants for teaching and research
in the area of mathematics related to Uncertainty
Quantification. The starting date is as soon as possible.
Candidates are expected to have a visible research agenda
and distinguished expertise in Uncertainty Quantification with
strong competency in at least one of the areas: mathematical
and numerical analysis of stochastic problems, statistics,
applied probability theory or <b>optimization</b>. Particular
expertise
on data assimilation, molecular dynamics, quantum
mechanics, conservation laws and a posteriori error analysis
for stochastic problems will be specially valued. This position is
affiliated with the Chair of Uncertainty Quantification and the
Department of Mathematics. The successful candidate should
on the one hand initiate and develop interdisciplinary
collaborations with other research groups at RWTH, in
particular, engineering and natural sciences. On the other
hand, he/she is expected to further develop the methodological
activities within the Chair of Uncertainty Quantification. <br>
</p>
<p>You should have a completed university degree and a special
aptitude for scientific work which is generally verified by means
of an outstanding doctorate. Ability in and commitment to
teaching are essential. The application should include supporting
documents regarding success in teaching. German is not
necessary to begin but will be expected as a teaching language
within 5 years.</p>
