Tenure-Track Assistant Professor for Mathematical or Computational Ecology
vor 17 Stunden
The Department of Biology at the University of Bern announces a vacancy for a Tenure-Track Assistant Professor to lead a new Division of Mathematical or Computational Ecology within the Institute of Ecology and Evolution (IEE). Applications are sought from individuals with an outstanding research record in Mathematical or Computational Ecology. We are searching for candidates with a strong background in both classical and modern ecological theories, who are keen on using theory to address outstanding ecological questions. Candidates who develop theory and models to match empirical systems are particularly encouraged to apply.
The candidate should have a PhD degree in a relevant field, postdoctoral and teaching experience, and a keen interest in establishing an active, proliferative research group, in teaching and mentoring, in fostering a diverse and inclusive work environment, and in collaborating with other researchers of our institute and beyond. The new faculty member will have the responsibility to develop and teach courses related to their field at the undergraduate and graduate levels. All graduate teaching and advanced undergraduate teaching is in English.
The advertised position includes the entire professor's salary at 80-100% employment level, a starting package, and continual core funding for personnel and consumables. The University of Bern has a clear set of guidelines for promotion to tenure after four to six years in the position.
Hosting a vibrant and interdisciplinary research community, the IEE is one of three institutes of the Department of Biology at the University of Bern and is primarily involved in three MSc Programs (Ecology and Evolution, Bioinformatics and Computational Biology, and Climate Science). The research and teaching strategy of the Department of Biology is to contribute to the understanding of mechanisms, processes, and patterns at all levels of biological organization, from genes to ecosystems, and to provide evidence-based guidance for the conservation of biodiversity. The IEE currently has seven divisions, each led by a professor, and it hosts several tenured and non-tenured group leaders and a large international community of post-doctoral researchers and graduate students. With the retirement of two Division Heads, the institute intends to hire two new Tenure-Track Assistant Professors, one being in the area of Mathematical or Computational Ecology.
The successful candidate should take advantage of the collaborative environment at the IEE, the Department of Biology and the University of Bern. The candidate will be expected to strengthen the links between Mathematical and Computational Ecology and other areas of research and to take advantage of opportunities for interactions with various institutes and initiatives.
The University of Bern is an equal opportunity employer and offers possibilities for job sharing and reduced work hours for individuals with care responsibilities. The IEE supports the Better Science Initiative and is committed to fostering diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) among students, staff, and faculty. Accordingly, we strongly encourage applications from persons from the global south, members of visible minorities, members of the LGBTQ+ communities, persons with disabilities, women, as well as from all qualified candidates with the skills and knowledge to productively engage with equitable, diverse and inclusive communities. Candidates who wish to be considered as a member of one or more designated groups are encouraged to self-identify in their motivation letter.
Applications must include: i) a 1-2 page letter of motivation; ii) a CV including funding history, a list of previous teaching and mentoring experience, and a list of publications highlighting the three most important publications; iii) a 2-3 page research plan for the next 5 years, including a paragraph outlining the candidate's longer-term research vision, and iv) a 1-page statement outlining the candidate's personal perspective on fostering DEI in academia and on supporting students and researchers from underrepresented groups.
Applications must be submitted by 1 March 2025 in a dual way: i) as a single PDF file to applications.natdek@unibe.ch; ii) by completing a web form: https://www.iee.unibe.ch/about_us/jobs. The starting date for the position is anticipated to be 1 February 2027. For further information, please contact the Executive Director of the IEE, Prof. Claudia Bank (dir.iee@unibe.ch).
