The Faculty of Mathematics at the Ruhr-Universit盲t Bochum invites applications for the position of a Professor W3 [m/f/d] in Mathematical Statistics and Data Science commencing at the earliest possible date (early succession to Prof. Holger Dette).

The holder of the position will represent the subject of

Mathematical Statistics and Data Science

in research and teaching.

We are seeking an individual with an excellent research profile in modern areas of Mathematical Statistics and the mathematical foundations of Data Science. This includes, for example, areas such as statistical learning, high-dimensional statistics, causal inference, or statistics for spatio-temporal data, but applications from other subfields are also explicitly welcome.

Applicants should be highly qualified both in research and teaching. The internationally visible research profile should meaningfully complement the existing research strengths of the Faculty of Mathematics and foster interdisciplinary collaboration.

Active participation in existing and planned collaborative research projects is expected, particularly within the University Alliance (UA) Ruhr. This specifically includes the TRR 391 鈥淪patio-temporal Statistics for the Transition of Energy and Transport鈥�.

The professorship鈥檚 teaching responsibilities include courses in the faculty鈥檚 mathematics degree programs, particularly in the planned Master鈥檚 program 鈥淢athematical Data Science鈥�. In addition, contributions to service teaching for other degree programs are expected (mathematics lectures for students in natural and engineering sciences, particularly in the areas of statistics and data science).

Positive evaluation as a junior professor, habilitation, or equivalent academic achievements and evidence of special aptitude are just as much required as the willingness to participate in the selfgoverning bodies of the Ruhr-Universit盲t Bochum and to generally get involved in university processes according to Ruhr-Universit盲t Bochum鈥檚 mission statement. The candidate has to meet the appointment requirements according to section 36 ff. Hochschulgesetz NW.

We expect furthermore:

• a strong commitment to teaching;
• a willingness to engage in interdisciplinary scientific work;
• proven ability and willingness to attract significant third-party funding for research projects.

The Ruhr-Universit盲t Bochum stands for diversity and equal opportunities. For this reason, we favour a working environment composed of heterogeneous teams, and seek to promote the careers of individuals who are underrepresented in our respective professional areas. The Ruhr-Universit盲t Bochum expressly requests job applications from women. In areas in which they are underrepresented they will be given preference in the case of equivalent qualifications with male candidates. Applications from individuals with disabilities are most welcome.

Complete applications (cover letter, curriculum vitae, copies of certificates, list of publications, proof of particular aptitude for academic teaching, list of courses taught, statement of research interests, list of third-party funding acquired), should be sent by 2025/06/30 via our online .
