  • 1.  2020 Herman Goldstine Memorial Postdoctoral Fellowship

    Posted 12-20-2019 17:08
    The Mathematical Sciences department of the IBM Thomas J. Watson
    Research Center invites applications for its 2020–2021 Herman
    Goldstine Memorial Postdoctoral Fellowship for research in
    mathematical and computer sciences. The fellowship provides scientists
    of outstanding ability an opportunity to advance their scholarship as
    resident department members at the Research Center. The Research
    Center is located in Westchester County, less than an hour north of
    New York City.

    The department provides an atmosphere in which basic research is
    combined with work on practical applications. Our permanent members,
    academic visitors, and post-doctoral fellows pursue research in pure
    and applied mathematics and in theoretical and exploratory computer
    science. Areas of research include: algorithms, artificial
    intelligence and machine learning, numerical analysis and scientific
    computing, dynamical systems, inverse problems, optimization,
    operations research, applied probability, and statistics. Close
    interaction with permanent department members is expected and
    encouraged, but fellows are free to pursue their own research
    interests.

    Up to two fellowships will be awarded. Candidates must have received a
    Ph.D. degree after September 2015 or should expect to receive one
    before the fellowship commences in the second half of 2020 (usually in
    September). The fellowship has a period of one year, and may be
    extended for another year by mutual agreement. The stipend is expected
    to be at least $150,000.
