Clausthal University of Technology is a research-focused university with outstanding national and international networking. The approximately 4,000 students and more than 1,200 employees enjoy short commutes, personal interaction, and the diverse landscape of the Upper Harz region in the middle of a UNESCO World Heritage Site in the Harz Mountains. Clausthal University of Technology is the most significant economic factor and the largest employer in the region, offering cultural diversity and internationalism. Here, science works closely with business and industry, bridging the gap between basic research and application in a strategic focus on the Circular Economy. With this university-wide concept for the future, our research aims to contribute to the development of a sustainable industrial society in the digital age. The close link between material and process knowledge as well as the expertise in digitization facilitate a significant contribution to the implementation of the Circular Economy.

In the process of refocusing the Institute of Mathematics, the Faculty of Mathematics/Computer Science and Mechanical Engineering of Clausthal University of Technology invites applications for three professorships (to be filled as soon as possible): The research of the candidate should focus on stochastic modelling, uncertainty quantification, stochastic optimization, stochastic (partial) differential equations or Bayesian statistics.

We are looking for internationally renowned persons with a research area complementing the research conducted at the Institute of Mathematics. The successful candidate should actively participate in the further development of the research profile of Clausthal University of Technology. He or she should promote the cooperation between mathematics and natural sciences, engineering, computer science and economics.

The candidate is expected to contribute to the degree program “Applied Mathematics”, by taking responsibilities for basic mathematical education, teaching at masters level, as well as teaching courses as service for other disciplines.

Please submit your application until 28 February 2021. The full text of the announcement and contact information can be found at https://www.tu-clausthal.de/stellenangebote
