staff. We are proud of our recent Athena Swan silver award, and we seek to continue improving across all aspects of equality, diversity and inclusion. The department has a thriving research programme in applied mathematics and statistics, with responsibility
for teaching mathematics and statistics at all levels across the University. To support our growth, we are seeking to appoint two Associate Professors B (tenured) of Statistics and Data Science. We seek candidates with leadership potential and an internationally
recognised track record in research in one or more branches of statistics.</span></div>
<div style="margin:0cm;font-size:12pt;font-family:Aptos,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif">Research interests in the Department focus on the development of statistical and applied mathematical methods
(and hybrids thereof) for a range of real-world applications. Examples of specific statistical topics include Bayesian modelling, functional data analysis, survival analysis, spatial statistics, statistical learning, biostatistics, network models and climate
modelling, but further linking between statistics and financial/applied mathematics, e.g. as part of MACSI (the Mathematics Applications Consortium for Science and Industry), would be particularly welcome.</span></div>
<div style="margin:0cm;font-size:12pt;font-family:Aptos,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif">The successful candidate will have a doctoral degree (level 10 NFQ) in statistics or equivalent discipline, a
track record of excellent publications in relevant journals and a developing research reputation. Evidence of success in research funding applications is desirable, as is significant experience of working in collaborative and interdisciplinary projects. The
successful candidate should also demonstrate passion for and commitment to teaching and supervision at undergraduate and postgraduate levels, and have a clear plan for contributing to the evolving research strategy of MACSI in statistics and data science.</span></div>
<div style="margin:0cm;font-size:12pt;font-family:Aptos,sans-serif"><span style="font-size:11pt;font-family:Arial,sans-serif">In addition, a commitment to EDI principles and to collaborative research with departments and research centres
across the University of Limerick is desirable. MACSI works closely with several of the research Institutes in UL, such as the Health Research Institute, the Bernal Institute and Lero (the Irish software research centre), as well as having investigators in
Science Foundation Ireland-funded national research centres including the Insight Centre for Data Analytics, the Solid State Pharmaceutical Centre (SSPC) and Vistamilk.
