Jobbeschreibung

Institute for Advanced Computational Science (IACS) invites applications for a tenure-track Assistant Professor position in computational and physical sciences. This is a joint hire with an appropriate home department at Stony Brook University. The anticipated start date is Fall 2026. Applicants should have a strong record of research in scientific computing, including high performance computing (HPC), as well as expertise in one or more additional areas of computational science, such as, but not limited to, computer architectures, algorithms, quantum computing, machine learning and/or AI. IACS faculty are expected to develop rigorous and interdisciplinary programs that strengthen both their home department and IACS. While the role of computation—such as modeling, simulation, and large-scale data analysis—is not domain‑specific, it will be central to the research agenda of the successful applicant as a primary scientific, scholarly, or creative methodology that advances both the physical sciences and the intellectual and algorithmic foundations of computation. The successful candidate is expected to pursue interdisciplinary research in collaboration with IACS‑affiliated departments, which span the sciences and the humanities, and research areas such as human‑centered computing, climate, and molecular discovery. The candidate will leverage Stony Brook University’s high‑performance computing resources and engage in close collaboration with researchers across IACS and the University’s newly established AI Institute. Teaching and mentoring of undergraduate and graduate students are expected, along with contributions to promoting equity, inclusion, and diversity within the academic community. This is a tenure-track position with an initial three-year renewable appointment.
