The Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at Eindhoven University of Technology is looking for a new assistant professor to be appointed within the Process Analytics group. The Process Analytics group specializes in process-aware data analytics.

The Department of Mathematics and Computer Science provides undergraduate and master programs in Mathematics, Computer Science and Data Science. The department has research collaborations with other departments at TU/e as well as with a large number of other universities, companies, and medical centers, both nationally and internationally. The Department has approximately 350 employees and about 1500 students.

Essentially, every time two or more activities are performed to reach a certain goal, fundamental principles of processes apply. Processes take place on the level of individual actors, groups of actors, entire organizations, and networks of organizations. Models of processes help in understanding these processes and by analyzing data showing what happened, when, in which context as recorded by various systems, we aim to get insights into these processes and we develop the tools and techniques to obtain these insights.
