The Northwestern Institute on Complex Systems (NICO) has a few open
positions.
We're especially interested in applicants with expertise in agent-based
modeling.
Please forward this to colleagues or lists that you think may be
appropriate.
Complexity Fellow (post-doctoral scholar)
Northwestern University, one of the nation's premier academic institutions,
recently announced the inception of The Northwestern Institute on Complex
Systems (NICO). A university-wide complexity institute, NICO is comprised of
a distinguished and diverse group of faculty from all areas of the
university, including engineering, business, natural sciences, education,
medicine, law, and social sciences (see
http://northwestern.edu/research/nico/).
NICO is currently offering highly competitive "NICO Fellow" post-doctoral
opportunities to young researchers who have interest in the study of complex
systems and in interdisciplinary collaborations. Candidates must be
self-motivated and goal-oriented individuals who have recently obtained
their Ph.D. and who possess outstanding potential. Applicants must also be
able to successfully communicate ideas to diverse audiences, bridge
different fields, and be motivated to work with faculty on interdisciplinary
complex systems projects. To promote interdisciplinary work, NICO Fellows
are urged to think creatively, and to indicate in their applications the
names of faculty (and/or domains) that they can work with and that will
cross-link two different domains. (e.g., social science and engineering).
Appointments will be from 1-3 years, with negotiable starting dates as
early as late Fall 2004. NICO has ambitious growth plans and will hire
additional Fellows in coming years, who will form a dynamic
interdisciplinary community. For confidential consideration, applicants
should send a cover letter describing areas of interest, the unique
contributions s/he can make to the institute, a complete CV and some names
of NICO faculty that they could work with. Applicants should arrange for 3
to 4 letters of recommendation to be sent independently. All information
should be submitted by email to complexity-fellows@ccl.northwestern.edu.
Northwestern University is an Equal Opportunity, Affirmative Action
Employer. Members of historically underrepresented groups are strongly
encouraged to apply.
