The successful candidate will join a department of approximately 60 faculty and 85 graduate students pursuing research across a wide range of pure and applied areas (https://math.ufl.edu/). The University of Florida is consistently ranked among the top public universities in the United States. The university and Gainesville community offer numerous cultural events and year-round outdoor activities.
The University has recently invested heavily in faculty hires and infrastructure, including new classroom and laboratory facilities. UF is home to HiPerGator, one of the most powerful university supercomputers in the U.S. (https://www.rc.ufl.edu/about/hipergator/), and the AI NVIDIA GPU SuperPOD (https://news.ufl.edu/2020/07/nvidia-partnership/) supporting UF’s campus-wide AI initiative (https://ai.ufl.edu). These resources are available to all faculty to support teaching and research.
