As one of Europe���s leading research universities, 
Ludwig-Maximilians-Universit��t (LMU) in Munich is committed to the 
highest international standards of excellence in research and teaching. 
Building on its more than 500-year-long tradition, it offers a broad 
spectrum that covers all areas of knowledge within its 18 Faculties, 
ranging from the humanities, law, economics and social sciences, to 
medicine and the natural sciences.

The Faculty of Mathematics, Informatics and Statistics invites 
applications for a

Professorship (W2) (5 years/tenure track) of Data Science

commencing on 1 October 2016.

The elite graduate program Data Science at LMU Munich, funded by the 
Elite Network of Bavaria, will begin in October 2016, see 
http://www.datascience-munich.de

Data Science as the science of extracting knowledge and information from 
data uses statistical and computer-based data analysis. The elite 
graduate program is carried out jointly by the Institutes of Informatics 
and Statistics at LMU Munich.

Within the graduate program, we invite applications for a W2 
professorship. We are looking for a personality who researches and 
teaches both in informatics and statistics. An active participation in 
the graduate program Data Science is expected. Additionally, cooperation 
in the statistical consulting unit StaBLab and the Data Science Lab at 
LMU Munich are desirable.

LMU Munich seeks to appoint a highly qualified junior academic to this 
professorship and, therefore, especially encourages early-career 
scholars to apply. Prerequisites for this position are a university 
degree and a doctoral degree or a comparable specific qualification. 
With an excellent record in research and teaching to date, prospective 
candidates will have demonstrated the potential for an outstanding 
academic career.

The initial appointment will be for five years. After a minimum of three 
years, it can be converted into a permanent position, pending a positive 
evaluation of the candidate���s performance in research and teaching as 
well as his or her personal aptitude, and if all legal conditions are met.

Under the terms of the ���LMU Academic Career Program���, in exceptional 
cases and subject to outstanding performance in research and teaching, 
the position may be converted from a W2 into a W3 Full Professorship at 
a later date.

LMU Munich provides newly appointed professors with various types of 
support, such as welcoming services and assistance for dual career couples.

LMU Munich is an equal opportunity employer. The University continues to 
be very successful in increasing the number of female faculty members 
and strongly encourages applications from female candidates. LMU Munich 
intends to enhance the diversity of its faculty members. Furthermore, 
disabled candidates with essentially equal qualifications will be given 
preference.

Please submit your application comprising a curriculum vitae, 
documentation of academic degrees and certificates as well as a list of 
publications to the Dean of the Faculty of Mathematics, Informatics and 
Statistics, Prof. Dr. Andreas Rosenschon, Theresienstra��e 39, 80333 
Munich, Germany, no later than 29. June 2016. Please also send the 
application electronically to dekanat16@lmu.de as one pdf-file not 
greater than 10 MB.
