Tenure-track Assistant Professor in Nonlinear Stochastic Processes

The Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Toulouse School of Economics (TSE) is inviting applications for a tenure-track Assistant Professor position, starting on September 1, 2027.

PRESENTATION OF TSE

Toulouse School of Economics (TSE) is an internationally recognized center of scientific excellence. Located in the heart of Toulouse (France), it is home to approximately 2,500 students and more than 150 faculty members in the fields of economics, mathematics, and quantitative social sciences.

TSE researchers develop innovative methods at the intersection of economics, data science, and decision support.

The research interests of the Department of Mathematics and Statistics include artificial intelligence, calculus of variations, econometrics, game theory, machine learning, operations research, optimization, partial differential equations (PDEs), probability, statistics, and mathematical models in economics, finance, and social sciences.

TSE offers excellent conditions for research and professional development on the path to tenure, including:

• A reduced teaching load, competitive salary, and funding for a doctoral or postdoctoral position
• Opportunities for interdisciplinary collaboration across TSE
• A broad mathematical community in Toulouse, one of France's leading centers for mathematic
• Excellent working conditions in the city center of a major city in south of France, in a new building with architectural significance.

REQUIRED SKILLS

We seek candidates with expertise in probability theory, stochastic control, or related areas. We are particularly interested in nonlinear Markov processes, interacting systems, mean-field control and games, and connections with economics, finance, or artificial intelligence.

Applicants must hold a PhD or expect to complete one by June 30, 2027, and demonstrate outstanding research potential and achievements, as well as excellent teaching abilities.

APPLICATION

Candidates should submit by January 2, 2027.

Online interviews will take place between January 18 and January 20, 2027
