The Faculty of Mathematics and Computer Science and the Cluster of Excellence Mathematics Münster: Dynamics – Geometry – Structure at the University of Münster, Germany, invite applications for two

Associate Professorships in Mathematics W2 level, 5-year appointment

These professorships have been established in the context of the new Cluster of Excellence Mathematics Münster within the framework of the German Excellence Strategy. One of the positions will be filled in an area of theoretical mathematics, and the other in an area of applied mathematics. The professorships are for five years.

We are looking for a dynamic and committed personality with a strong research profile, ideally connecting mathematical fields. Special attention will be given to candidates who can demonstrate their ability to enhance and complement the existing research groups at Mathematics Münster and are open to interdisciplinary collaborations with other scientific groups in Münster.

Applicants must hold a doctoral degree in mathematics or in a related field. They should demonstrate a strong research record and appropriate teaching experience.

Prerequisite for the application are academic achievements made as a Juniorprofessor (assistant professor), in a Habilitation (postdoctoral qualification), as a member of the academic staff of a university or non-university research institute, or in a research position in business, administration or other relevant fields in Germany or abroad.

The University of Münster is an equal opportunity employer and is committed to increasing the proportion of female academics. Consequently, we actively encourage applications by women. Female candidates with equivalent qualifications and academic achievements will be preferentially considered within the framework of the legal possibilities. We also welcome applications from candidates with severe disabilities. Disabled candidates with equivalent qualifications will be preferentially considered, unless other candidate-related reasons prevail.

Applications, including a CV, list of publications, research plan, and teaching portfolio, should be submitted electronically as a single PDF file by 30 September 2019 to mathdek@uni-muenster.de
