2 weeks ago
Overview The Department of Computer Science at Durham University seeks to appoint a talented individual to the role of Assistant or Associate Professor. This is a permanent position. We are seeking a researcher with expertise in decision-making processes related to climate, environmental, economic, and policy pathways. We are particularly interested in candidates whose work is supported by Digital Twin technologies (modelling, simulations, and infrastructure), applied AI, and uncertainty quantification. This post offers an exciting opportunity to contribute to the development of computer science research at Durham, and to engage with interdisciplinary work through JusTN0W, an initiative within the Centre for Sustainable Development Law and Policy. JusTN0W aims to develop a world-leading interdisciplinary work programme to research sustainable and just solutions for accelerated decarbonisation of economies. The university has committed to invest £5M over four years in this project. Responsibilities Play a leading role in the development of JusTN0W, dedicating the first four years primarily to this work. Benefit from a reduced teaching load and a startup travel budget to support high-quality research, grant applications, and engagement with other staff in JusTN0W-related opportunities. Contribute to research and teaching as the appointment evolves, with potential transition to a primarily research role or an Education and Research Track position after four years, based on grant income. About the Department The Department of Computer Science is one of the UK\'s leading CS departments, with an outstanding reputation in research, teaching, and student employability. Our internationally recognised research areas include Algorithms and Complexity, Artificial Intelligence and Human Systems, Networks, Scientific Computing and Vision, Imaging and Visualisation. The department has a lively research culture with many visitors and events, and collaborations locally, nationally, and internationally. In REF2021 we rose six places in the ranking. The department currently has more than 50 permanent academic staff and holds an Athena SWAN Silver award.
