[Job] 2024 CDS Faculty Fellow
Apply at https://apply.interfolio.com/133513 Description The Center for Data Science (CDS) at New York University (NYU) invites applications for its highly prestigious CDS Faculty Fellow <https://cds.nyu.edu/our-people/research-engineers-fellows-and-postdocs/> positions. Building on the success of the Moore-Sloan Fellows program, CDS has created a Faculty Fellow program to continue to develop outstanding researchers in Data Science. Alumni of the distinguished Moore-Sloan Fellowship program have secured top-level academic positions or industry jobs. For instance, our former Fellows obtained faculty positions here at NYU, the University of Chicago, Johns Hopkins, the University of Michigan, and the University of Amsterdam, to list just the most recent ones. Given the prestigious nature of the position, we offer a generous compensation package which may include NYU faculty housing as well as funds to support research and travel. The Center for Data Science (CDS) is the focal point for New York University’s university-wide efforts in Data Science. The Center was established in 2013 to advance NYU’s goal of creating a world-leading Data Science training and research facility, and arming researchers and professionals with the tools to harness the power of Big Data. Today, CDS counts 20 jointly appointed interdisciplinary faculty housed on three floors of our modern 60 5th Avenue building, one of New York City’s historic properties. It is home to a top-ranked MS in Data Science program, one of the first PhD programs in Data Science, and a new undergraduate program in Data Science, as well as a lively Fellow and Postdoctoral program. It has over 60 associate and affiliate faculty from 25 departments in 9 schools and units. With cross-disciplinary research and innovative educational programs, CDS is shaping the fields of Data Science and Machine Learning. The CDS Faculty Fellow will be expected to work at the boundaries between the data-science methods and domain sciences. They are also encouraged to develop collaborations with faculty at CDS and NYU. They will lead original research projects of their choosing with impact in one or more scientific domains and in one or more methodological domains (computer science, statistics, and applied mathematics). We seek outstanding interdisciplinary researchers with expertise in the methods of data science possibly with application in physical, life, or social science. The program recognizes that rapid advances in our ability to acquire and generate data are transforming all fields of discovery from data-poor to data-rich. A significant bottleneck to discovery is our ability to perform inference over heterogeneous, noisy, and often massive datasets. Successful candidates will bring a research agenda that can take advantage of the unique intellectual opportunities afforded by NYU, and will have experience in working with researchers across different fields. This is a full-time, non-tenure position, with a light teaching load of one (1) CDS course per year as the primary instructor. You will also be expected to participate in service activities of the Center for Data Science (such as helping review admissions applications, committee work, etc.). Appointments will be for two years. Fellows will be offered a competitive salary and benefits, with funds to support research and travel. A start date of September 1, 2024 is planned. In compliance with NYC’s Pay Transparency Act, the annual base salary range for this position is $85,000 - $95,000. Qualifications Applicants must possess a doctorate degree prior to the beginning of the position. Application Instructions Please submit your curriculum vitae, a list of publications, and a brief statement of research interests (no longer than 4 pages) via our Interfolio application page. The statement of research interests should mention the names of one or more faculty members associated with the NYU Center for Data Science who would have substantial intellectual overlap with the applicant’s interests and likely program of research. More information about relevant faculty members can be found at https://cds.nyu.edu/our-people. We encourage applicants to include a brief statement describing how your research, teaching, and service contributes to diversity and inclusion. Please submit your application by November 28, 2023 for full consideration.
