UiT – The Arctic University of Norway is looking to fill a permanent position as an associate professor in pure mathematics within the field of Algebra and its applications (ideally from 2020). We are particularly interested in strengthening the research activities within the Lie-Størmer Center for Fundamental Structures in Computational and Pure Mathematics which will unite and advance the research frontiers in computational and pure mathematics by exploring fundamental mathematical structures and their increasing significance for modern computational problems. Preference will be given to candidates who can demonstrate connections to the current research activities in the Algebra group (https://uit.no/research/algebra) and the Lie-Størmer Center (https://uit.no/research/lsc). The successful candidate will join the Department of Mathematics and Statistics and will be associated to the Algebra group.

We will consider both experienced researchers and up-and-coming candidates in earlier stages of their careers, and the evaluation of the applicants will be on the potential of the candidates to contribute to the creation of a leading research group in the field of Algebra and its applications. The department is particularly committed to increase the proportion of women in senior research positions. We therefore especially encourage female candidates to apply.
