The EPFL plans a substantial expansion in the basic sciences, including a significant reinforcement in mathematics, physics, and chemistry, and a major new effort in the life sciences.

As part of this broad program, the Mathematics Department has an opening at the full professor level. Applications for appointments at the Associate and Assistant Professor (tenure-track) levels will also be considered. We seek outstanding individuals in all areas of applied mathematics.

Applications in discrete mathematics and statistics are particularly encouraged. Successful candidates must develop an independent, internationally recognized program of scholarly research and must be willing to teach at both the undergraduate and graduate level. Substantial start-up resources will be provided. Women candidates are strongly encouraged to apply.
