[Cugapost] Assistant or Associate Professor of Data Science

[Lorelei Carlson]

The Data Science Program at William & Mary, a public university of the Commonwealth of Virginia, seeks applications for a tenure track position at the Assistant or Associate Professor level in Data Science. Appointment will begin August 10, 2022. We are interested in an individual with research and teaching expertise in i) Artificial Intelligence (AI)/Machine Learning (ML) techniques or ii) applications of data science in support of large-scale experiments and simulations performed at Jefferson Lab, a Department of Energy national laboratory.

The successful applicant is expected to establish and maintain a vibrant externally funded research program with a focus on data science issues in support of the research portfolio undertaken at Jefferson Lab. The successful applicant will inspire a highly motivated graduate and undergraduate student body. Teaching expectation is one course per semester. The successful applicant must be able to teach lecture and seminar-style courses in data science, and contribute to expanding the strong connection between W&M and Jefferson Lab.

The successful applicant is also expected to contribute to a Data Science unit that builds on the diverse expertise of William & Mary to establish a nationwide leading program. Depending on the particular expertise of the candidate, this Data Science position may carry a joint appointment with Computer Science or Physics as appropriate.

Applicants must hold a Ph.D. in Data Science, Information Science, Computer Science, Physics (with extensive experience in Data Science), or a related field by the time of appointment (August 10, 2022). Consideration for the higher rank of Associate Professor requires additional commensurate experience.

Applicants must apply online at https://jobs.wm.edu/postings/44255 (position number: F0423W). Submit a curriculum vitae, a cover letter, a statement of research and teaching interests, a statement describing previous professional experience or future plans (or both) that demonstrate a commitment to diversity and inclusion. You will be prompted to submit online the names and email addresses of three references who will be contacted by the system with instructions for how to submit a letter of reference.

For full consideration, submit application materials by the review date, December 1, 2022. Applications received after the review date will be considered if needed.
