[招聘信息] Open academic position in Financial Mathematics/Statistics at ULB

Open academic position in Financial Mathematics/Statistics at ULB

Description

The Faculty of Sciences of the Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB) announces the opening of a full-time academic position in the Department of Mathematics starting October 1st, 2009.

Candidates, who should hold a Phd in Mathematics or Statistics, are expected to lead high quality teaching and research programs in Actuarial Sciences and/or Statistics, and to have a strong record of publications and research experience in at least one of these fields, in both if possible (e.g., probability or statistical models in finance/insurance). Experience in international research collaboration as well as a significantly long research stay in a foreign university or research laboratory are important assets.

The position involves both teaching and research and some commitment to administrative tasks. For candidates not fluent in French, a temporary period of teaching in English may be granted. This position will become permanent after a trial period of three years.

The candidate will take part in teaching activities in the Bachelor and Master programmes of the faculty of Sciences. He/she should progressively increase his/her teaching activities to reach a level comparable to that of his/her colleagues (typically 5 hours a week over two semesters). His/her research will be part of that of the Probability, Statistics and Actuarial Sciences group of the Department of Mathematics.

If the selected candidate is neither already employed by ULB nor employed by the Fonds National de la Recherche Scientifique and working at ULB, he/she will be offered a first contract for a duration of three years. At the end of this period and subject to the agreement of the Board of the university, he/she will be offered a permanent position.
