In this position, you develop your own research line. The position of Assistant Professor is initially a tenure track position for five years. After four years, based on transparent criteria, we will take a decision on tenure. The preferred starting date is September 1, 2022, but we can be flexible.

Your duties

• you develop a research line in applied mathematics
• you contribute to the teaching of the department, at both the undergraduate and graduate level
• you show academic leadership, nationally and internationally
• you participate in departmental activities and tasks, including writing grant proposals
