Founded in 1963, The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) is a forward-looking comprehensive research university with a global vision and a mission to combine tradition with modernity, and to bring together China and the West. The Department of Mathematics at CUHK has developed a strong reputation in teaching and research. Many of the faculty members are internationally renowned and are recipients of prestigious awards and honors.
The Center for Mathematical Artificial Intelligence (CMAI, http://cmai.math.cuhk.edu.hk/) is a newly established research center under the Department of Mathematics and The Institute of Mathematical Sciences (IMS) in CUHK. The CMAI provides a platform on which various research scientists from different fields and areas can carry out research with rigorous mathematics, for the development and flourishment of forefront artificial intelligence technologies.
The CMAI currently has some openings for non-tenure track Research Assistant Professorship (RAP). We seek promising young scientists whose expertise lies in scientific computing, optimization, deep learning, computer vision, reinforcement learning, and natural language processing. The applicant is expected to have a close collaboration with faculties at the CMAI to push the boundaries of deep learning’s mission-critical applications. The teaching load of these appointments is light, with one course each academic year. Applicants should have (i) a relevant PhD degree; (ii) good potential for research and teaching; and (iii) a strong interest in industry applications. Appointments will initially be made on a contract basis for one year commencing March 2024, renewable subject to performance and mutual agreement.
Applicants should submit online application, together with the names and e-mail addresses of three referees. Review of applications will begin in November 2023, and will continue until the positions are filled.
