Position Summary
As part of Indiana University Bloomingtons Faculty 100 initiative the Department of Mathematics in the College of Arts and Sciences invites applications for an open-rank position (Assistant Associate or Full Professor) to begin in Fall 2027. These are 10-month appointments ideally beginning August 1 2027. We seek an outstanding mathematician whose research engages substantially with artificial intelligence data science or scientific machine learning. The successful candidate will have a primary appointment in Mathematics and opportunities to collaborate broadly with faculty in the Luddy School of Informatics Computing and Engineering Data Science Statistics the Institute for Scientific Computing and Applied Mathematics and scientific units across our campus. We are particularly interested in researchers working in mathematical artificial intelligence broadly construed. This includes but is not limited to: machine learning algorithms formal proof assistants and large language models. Areas of interest for possible collaborations include but are not limited to: topological data analysis and topological machine learning; AI-assisted theorem proving formal verification proof assistants automated proof search and AI-guided mathematical discovery; neural operators physics-informed learning inverse problems uncertainty quantification and rigorous methods for differential equations and scientific machine learning; geometric deep learning manifold learning equivariant methods high-dimensional geometry and structure-aware learning; and the mathematical foundations of trustworthy AI including stability robustness verification interpretability and generalization. Candidates whose work connects rigorous mathematics with modern computation and complements departmental strengths in topology algebraic topology analysis partial differential equations geometric analysis probability logic formal methods and experimental mathematics will be given preference. We encourage applications from scholars who apply interdisciplinary perspectives across a variety of these domains. Responsibilities: Candidates are expected to sustain an active externally funded research program to engage undergraduate and graduate students through effective teaching and mentoring to contribute to curricular development in mathematical AI as described above and to participate in service to the university and the profession. Candidates should be able to work effectively in a team environment and to build connections between mathematics the joint B.S. program with Luddy Data Science and AI- and data-intensive research across campus. To advance scholarly innovation and excellence we especially welcome candidates whose demonstrated experience research teaching and mentoring will support the universitys commitment to an inclusive academic community. Application Procedures: All applicants should apply online at and also at through which all materials are requested. Materials required include: a cover letter of application stating rank sought; CV; and statements on research and teaching. Also required are three letters of reference. Applicants seeking appointment with tenure should provide an additional three names of potential references from which the department may later solicit additional letters. Full consideration date. For full consideration applications should be received by November 7 2026 . Review of applications will begin immediately thereafter. Before any conditional offer of employment with tenure is finalized candidates will be asked to disclose any pending investigations or previous findings of sexual or professional misconduct. They will also be required to authorize an inquiry by Indiana University Bloomington with all current and former employers along these lines. The relevance of information disclosed or ascertained in the context of this process to a candidates eligibility for hire will be evaluated by Indiana University Bloomington on a case-by-case basis. Applicants should be aware however that Indiana University Bloomington takes the matters of sexual and professional misconduct very seriously. About Indiana University Bloomington: Founded in 1820 Indiana University-Bloomington ( IUB ) is the flagship campus of Indiana University. Located in Bloomington IN. IUB constantly strives to embody its mission to create disseminate preserve and apply knowledge. It does so through its commitments to cutting-edge research scholarship arts and creative activity; inspired and challenging undergraduate graduate professional and lifelong educational programs; meaningful experiences outside the classroom; expansive global educational opportunities; first-rate library and museum collections; and far-reaching economic development and impact in the state and region. IUB is a member of the prestigious Association of American University ( AAU ) since 1909 is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission and is a member of the North Central Association. With over 47000 undergraduate and graduate students the campus has 16 degree-granting colleges and schools offering 300 undergraduate majors 300 Masters degrees and 150 doctoral and professional degree opportunities. Known for its Indiana limestone facades and green spaces throughout IUB is widely considered one of the countrys most beautiful college campuses. The College of Arts and Sciences at Indiana University offers over 225 academic programs rooted in three broad areas of studyArts and Humanities Natural and Mathematics Sciences and Social and Historical Studies. The College is home to over 70 departments and programs and three schoolsthe Eskenazi School of Art Architecture Design the Hamilton Lugar School of Global and International Studies and The Media School. Over 900 faculty members serve within the College and form an extraordinary teaching and learning community at the heart of a world-class university. Members of the Colleges faculty are continually recognized as elected fellows of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences the National Academies the American Association for the Advancement of Science and include MacArthur and Guggenheim Fellows Fulbright Award winners and Pulitzer Prize Oscar and Emmy winners. The Department of Mathematics at Indiana University Bloomington supports research and teaching across pure and applied mathematics. Its strengths in topology algebraic topology analysis partial differential equations geometric analysis logic formal methods and experimental mathematics provide a strong foundation for this position. The successful candidate will help connect these strengths to a developing course in topological data analysis the new joint B.S. major with Luddy Data Science undergraduate research graduate training and campus collaborations in AI data science and scientific computing. The Luddy School of Informatics Computing and Engineering at Indiana University is the first of its kind and among the largest in the country. Its mission is to excel and lead in education research and outreach spanning and integrating the full breadth of computing information technology and modern engineering. The Luddy School is a core school with programs on the Bloomington and Indianapolis campus and includes over 150 faculty and 3100 students. Departments in the Luddy Schools Bloomington campus include Computer Science Information and Library Science Informatics and Intelligent Systems Engineering. Nestled in the rolling hills of south-central Indiana and home to 85000 residents the city of Bloomington offers the feel of a college town with many of the amenities of a large city. From off-Broadway plays and musicals the LOTUS World Festival of Music quick access to 250000 acres of public recreation lands outstanding public schools and a reasonable cost of living Bloomington offers much to all.
