Job Description

The successful candidate will have an excellent research record in an area of applied mathematics (including numerical analysis) other than theoretical particle physics or general relativity. Preference may be given to candidates with research interests which fit in with existing ones in the department: continuum mechanics, computational applied mathematics, partial differential equations, applied analysis, mathematical biology/medicine, applied dynamical systems. The ability to contribute impact case studies to future research assessments is desirable. The candidate will be expected to undertake and publish original research of the highest level, to apply for external funding, to contribute to the research activities of the Applied Mathematics research unit and of the department as a whole, and to undertake teaching and administrative duties as assigned by the Head of Department of Mathematical Sciences.

Applications from holders of personal fellowships would be welcome. Applications are particularly welcome from women and black and minority ethnic candidates, who are under-represented in academic posts in the University.

For appointment at Grade 8 candidates will need to provide evidence of relevant teaching experience at University level and a significant record of publications at international level.
