ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY
Northeastern University is pleased to announce an Open Rank Research Faculty position in Network Science. The Research Faculty will be a core member of the Network Science Institute, and appointed in the Bouve College of Health Sciences. The Research Faculty will be responsible for building an independent research program and participate in the Institute’s research and mentorship efforts. This position is intended to support transition into research independence. It is expected therefore to gradually move from fully, hard-funded support to a salary largely funded through soft-funded, external awards over the course of 3 years. The Research Faculty will have the opportunity to participate in the doctoral student admissions process and supervise students in the network science doctoral program. Research focus should be aligned and/or synergistic with the Institute’s and the Bouve College of Health Sciences current research programs, particularly the ones in the fields of network science, infectious disease dynamics, and computational epidemiology.
Successful applicants will have an expertise in network science, with relevant publications and a track record obtaining extramural funds. Applicants should have a strong understanding of the mathematical, statistical, and theoretical tools used to study complex networks, and ability to process and analyze datasets that represent complex dynamical systems. Candidates should be familiar with statistical inference, network modeling, and machine learning techniques and have fluency in the common scientific programming languages, such as Python, R, Julia, Matlab.
