(New) Assistant professor in Mathematical Logic
Deadline: Sunday 9 June 2024Are you working at the forefront of mathematical logic and are you passionate about research and teaching in this field? Are you looking forward to take the next step in your career and are you excited about joining a renowned interdisciplinary research institute with a strong international orientation? The Institute for Logic, Language and Computation (ILLC) at the University of Amsterdam (UvA) is seeking to hire a new faculty member in this area, at the assistant professor level. At the ILLC we strive for a better gender balance amongst our staff. We therefore strongly encourage women to apply for this position. While we will consider applications from individuals working in any area within mathematical logic, with the aim of strengthening our profile in the traditional areas of mathematical logic we have a strong preference for a logician working in model theory or set theory.For more information, see here or at https://vacatures.uva.nl/UvA/job/Assistant-professor-in-Mathematical-Logic/794204502/ or contact Prof. Yde Venema at y.venema at uva.nl. -
