Professors or Assistant Professors (Tenure Track) of Computational and Applied Mathematics

The new professors will be members of the Seminar of Applied Mathematics within the Department of Mathematics. We seek individuals with an outstanding research record and a demonstrated ability to direct research work of the highest quality in the areas of computational and applied mathematics, including but not limited to data-driven numerical modeling, scientific machine learning and AI for science and engineering, computational uncertainty quantification, optimization and inverse problems, computational aspects of stochastic (partial) differential equations, randomized numerical algorithms, structure-aware and structure-preserving numerical methods for continuum field models, and hardware-aware numerical algorithms on large-scale HPC platforms and emerging architectures such as quantum, analog, and neuromorphic computing.

Teaching responsibilities will involve undergraduate (in German or English) and graduate courses (in English) for students of mathematics, computational science and engineering (CSE), and other departments of ETH Zurich.

Assistant professorships have been established to promote the careers of early-career scientists. ETH Zurich implements a tenure track system equivalent to that of other top international universities.

ETH Zurich is an equal opportunity and family-friendly employer, values diversity, and is responsive to the needs of dual-career couples.

Applications should include a covering letter; a curriculum vitae; a list of publications; three statements on a) research, b) teaching, c) leadership; descriptions of the three most important achievements; and a certificate of the highest degree. Please note that the covering letter should be formally addressed to the President of ETH Zurich, Prof. Dr. Joël Mesot. The closing date for applications is 20 September 2026.
