As part of the Donders Institute for Brain, Cognition and Behaviour, the department has a distinct neurocognitive focus and close interactions with the computer science, neuroscience and psychology departments. The department’s ambitions are (1) to develop intelligent machines that show human-level performance in challenging real-world settings, (2) to understand the computational basis of the human mind and (3) to improve the interaction between humans and machines. <br class=""> <br class="">We seek candidates who conduct foundational research in AI (e.g. probabilistic modelling, neural networks, reinforcement learning, or multi-agent systems) and/or create innovative future technology (e.g. cognitive robotics, cognitive computing, data science, smart systems, brain-machine interfacing, or augmented/virtual reality) that has significant societal impact and will improve the way we live our lives. <div class=""><br class="">You will be expected to: <br class=""> <br class=""><div class=""><span style="white-space:pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>• develop courses and conduct teaching at undergraduate and post-graduate levels;<br class=""></div><div class=""><span style="white-space:pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>• perform top-quality research in Artificial Intelligence;<br class=""></div><div class=""><span style="white-space:pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>• establish and execute an externally funded research programme;<br class=""></div><div class=""><span style="white-space:pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>• interact and collaborate with other researchers and specialists in academia and/or industry;<br class=""></div><div class=""><span style="white-space:pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>• be an inspiring member of our staff and have excellent communication skills.<br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div>What we expect from you:<br class=""><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><span style="white-space:pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>• a PhD degree in Artificial Intelligence, Computer Science, Applied Mathematics, Cognitive Science, Computational <span style="white-space:pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span></div><div class=""><span style="white-space:pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span> Neuroscience or a related discipline and several years of post-doctoral experience.<br class=""></div><div class=""><span style="white-space:pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>• excellent track record in scientific research, as evidenced by publications in academic journals.<br class=""></div><div class=""><span style="white-space:pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>• proven ability to provide inspiring teaching in English.<br class=""></div><div class=""><span style="white-space:pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>• Dutch university teaching qualification or the willingness to obtain one.<br class=""></div><div class=""><span style="white-space:pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>• experience in the acquisition of external funding and an entrepreneurial mindset.<br class=""></div><div class=""><span style="white-space:pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>• ability to work with others in a team.<br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div>What we have to offer:<br class=""><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><span style="white-space:pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>• employment: 1.0 FTE;<br class=""></div><div class=""><span style="white-space:pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>• in addition to the salary: an 8% holiday allowance and an 8.3% end-of-year bonus;<br class=""></div><div class=""><span style="white-space:pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>• depending on your profile, you will be appointed as an Assistant Professor (maximum gross monthly salary of €4,757, based </div><div class=""><span style="white-space:pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span> on a 38-hour working week, scale 11) or Associate Professor (maximum gross monthly salary of €5,861 based on a 38-hour </div><div class=""> <span style="white-space:pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span> working week, scale 13);<br class=""></div><div class=""><span style="white-space:pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>• the duration of the tenure track will depend on your expertise and experience;<br class=""></div><div class=""><span style="white-space:pre" class="Apple-tab-span"> </span>• you will be classified as an Assistant Professor (Universitair docent) or as an Associate Professor (Universitair hoofddocent), </div><div class=""> Level 2 in the Dutch university job-ranking system (UFO).<br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">If you are interested, please use the following link for further information and to apply: </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><a href="http://www.ru.nl/werken/details/details_vacature_0/?recid=598175" class="">http://www.ru.nl/werken/details/details_vacature_0/?recid=598175</a></div><br class=""></div></body></html>
