Positions

IDEAL Postdoctoral Research Fellow:

The Institute for Data, Econometrics, Algorithms, and Learning (IDEAL) invites applications for two postdoctoral positions with anticipated start dates in the fall of 2024. IDEAL is an NSF-funded interdisciplinary institute organized by University of Illinois Chicago (UIC), Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago (TTIC), Northwestern University, the University of Chicago, and Illinois Institute of Technology. 

One of these positions will be hosted by UIC and one by TTIC. The postdoctoral researchers will conduct research on key aspects of the foundations of data science. This field includes relevant areas of Theoretical Computer Science, Machine Learning, Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, Statistics, Operations Research, and Econometrics. The duration of the postdoc positions is 2 years. Applications received by February 16, 2024 will be given full consideration. However, the positions will remain open until filled. In your cover letter, please let us know if you would like to be considered only for the UIC or TTIC position. Applications will be considered for both positions by default.
