Data Science is a new department that has grown out of a long-standing initiative to increase scholarship and education in quantitative methodology at the University of Oregon. We envision the Data Science Department to be a hub of ethical methodological data science research, with strong connections to domain areas of application, overall facilitating interdisciplinary collaboration across the university. Current faculty and affiliates reflect strengths in machine learning, biological modeling, data ethics, data sovereignty, computer science, environmental data science, climate change policy and modeling, evolutionary genetics, and forensic genetics. The University of Oregon is a public university committed to exceptional teaching, discovery, and service, with a mission to foster the next generation of transformational leaders and informed participants in the global community. The department offers a rapidly growing Data Science undergraduate program, offered for the first time in Fall 2020 and projected to have > 700 undergraduate majors in 2027.
This program aims to help students learn the technical data science skills to do socially/environmentally-connected interdisciplinary work with real world impact. Faculty in the department of Data Science can work with PhD students and integrate in specialized research communities through affiliations with world-class research Institutes on campus (e.g., the Institute of Neuroscience; the Institute of Ecology and Evolution; Center for the Study of Women in Society).
• PhD in discipline related to data science (ex: statistics, computer science, applied mathematics, or a domain field with strong involvement in data science methodology applied in that field)
• Appointable to the rank of Associate or Full Professor upon initiation of the position
• Demonstrated success in collaboratively co-organizing spaces that prioritize belonging
• Exemplary evidence of impact beyond academia through research, teaching, and/or service
• Demonstrated experience leading a productive and impactful research program aligned with the goals of the department
The University of Oregon is building a faculty committed to meeting the needs of our changing student body and creating essential knowledge for society. We encourage applications from individuals who want to join an institution committed to addressing complex problems at all scales, and critical thinking and cross-disciplinary dialogue. We believe the way to create the faculty we need is to develop the most inclusive applicant pool. Goal 03 of our new (2024) strategic plan, titled Oregon Rising, is to create a flourishing community. As outlined in Oregon Rising, “Flourishing is the holistic development and thriving of every individual in our diverse community achieved through growth, well-being, resilience, trust, belonging, robust connection, and sense of purpose. A flourishing community is built on collective experience and is made stronger by our shared commitment to one another.
