LECTURESHIP IN THE MATHEMATICS OF DATA SCIENCE,
THE UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH
Applications are invited for a lectureship in the Mathematics of Data
Science. The University of Edinburgh and the School of Mathematics are
partners in a consortium that will lead the UK’s Alan Turing Institute,
a major initiative that will drive research and investment in the data
science area in coming years. We seek an outstanding candidate with
either an existing track record of high-quality research in an area
which is related to data science, or strong evidence of high research
potential. The post is open to all areas of data science, and in
particular this strongly includes the area of Statistics. It is an
exciting time at the University of Edinburgh which, as well as being a
member of the Alan Turing Institute Joint Venture, has recently
expanded its Statistics group with multiple appointments (including Ruth
King to the Thomas Bayes Chair of Statistics). The successful applicant
will be expected to carry out independent research and to contribute to
the teaching of undergraduate and postgraduate courses.
Closing date: 5pm GMT on Tuesday 14th April 2015 and the post is
available at a mutually agreed date from 1 August 2015.
