[DMANET] Deadline Approaching (April 2nd): Two Professorships (open rank) interfacing classical Network Science and Graph Machine Learning at Goethe University Frankfurt

The recently founded Center for Critical Computational Studies (C3S) at
Goethe University Frankfurt am Main, Germany, seeks to fill the
positions of at least twelve professorships. The first round of
recruitment includes

Two professorships at the interface between classical network science
and graph machine learning.

The calls are open discipline and open rank (W1 to W2 Tenure Track; W2
to W3 Tenure Track; W3). Ideal candidates for these professorships will
possess a robust cross-disciplinary profile or interest, demonstrating
not only expertise within their specific domains but also a genuine
openness to collaborative, cross-disciplinary work. While the primary
focus is on researchers with a strong background in network science,
computer science or mathematics, proven by a matching PhD and
high-ranking publications in the research areas described above, other
degrees in suitable application areas are also welcome.
Envisioned research fields include but are not limited to:

- Mathematics of graph machine learning.
- Robustness and guaranteed performance, in particular dealing with
noise, data bias and application specific challenges (e.g., in
social/socio-ecological settings).
- Sustainability, in particular scalability, data and resource efficiency.
- Non-static graphs: dynamic, temporal, streaming settings.
- Random graphs and random processes.
- Dealing with higher-order structures such as motifs, graphlets, and
simplicial complexes.

In an explorative workshop from 25 to 27 June in Frankfurt am Main, we
will invite candidates to showcase their expertise and
cross-disciplinary interests in a dynamic, engaging, and collaborative
environment. Neither your application for the workshop nor the workshop
as such are part of the formal hiring process. The workshop will pave
the way for this hiring process, which will be conducted by
extraordinary selection committees ("Findungskommissionen" in German)
pursuant to the Rules of Recruitment ("Berufungssatzung" in German) of
Goethe University.

We invite applications for the workshop until 02 April 2024 and will
cover travel and accommodation for invitees.
