In connection with the grant of the Canada First Research Excellence Fund (IVADO), pending final budgetary approval, the Department of Computer Science and Operations Research is seeking applications for one full-time tenure-track position (as assistant or associate professor), in areas related to machine learning and its applications (e.g., healthcare, natural language processing, computer vision, robotics). The appointed candidates will have the possibility to join Mila, the largest academic research group in the area of deep learning, worldwide, and become an academic member of the IVADO data science community. Through their membership with Mila, the candidate(s) could also be nominated for a prestigious Canada CIFAR AI (CCAI) Chair. The appointed candidate will be expected to teach undergraduate and graduate courses, supervise graduate students, be active in research, publishing, and the diffusion of knowledge, and contribute to the activities of the University. Mila researchers pioneered deep learning more than a decade ago and remain an academic pillar of this approach to artificial intelligence.
