Jobs & Appointments

A Post-Doctoral Schloar position is available in Dr. Pat Zollner’s lab in the Department of Forestry and Natural Resources at Purdue University. The PhD student will work collaboratively with a PhD student, project Co-PIs, and stakeholders to develop an Agent Based Model to understand how multiple stressors and interactions between those stressors as well as management scenarios impact populations of Least Bell’s Vireo in Southern California.

The selected candidate will be appointed a part-time position (0,5 fte) as a Forsker/Researcher in the NORCE Kristiansand office. The working language is English, although knowledge of or willingness to learn Norwegian will be an additional advantage.

We are looking for a researcher to complement our Modelling and Simulation team. Initially, the successful candidate will be responsible for programming agent-based models of urban logistic systems in a H2020 grant that brings together indust[…]

Cirad recruits a computer scientist to work on CORMAS, an ABM platform oriented towards participatory modelling (co-design of models and interactive simulation).
You will be in charge of developing CORMAS in the Pharo environment. As participation is the essence of CORMAS, its development requires theoretical and operational knowledge of Human-Machine Interfaces to reuse technologies and design ergonomic systems.

The Department of Management Science at the University of Strathclyde is advertising for Chancellor’s Fellow in Health Tech.

Candidates should be familiar with management science systems modelling for decision making in the management of complex systems.

These are attractive, strategic posts for PhD-holders with strong research potential. The post is equivalent to a US Assistant Prof or UK lecturer level but has a reduced teaching load to encourage the development of a research portfolio.

The position is opened by the Complex Human Behaviour Lab (CHuB), an interdisciplinary research unit carrying out fundamental and applied research informed by the statistical analysis of large behavioural datasets and aimed at modelling individual behaviour and collective social phenomena using the methods of complexity science, computational social science, and network theory. The topics covered within the unit range from individual decisions, human mobility and transportation to online co[…]

A three years PhD Position on “Model-based exploration of leverage points
to foster sustainable nitrogen management in German agriculture” is
offered from May 1, 2022 on with a methodological focus on
social-ecological modelling and agent-based modelling.

The aim of the PhD project is to investigate the effects of policy
measures for sustainable nitrogen management of farmers in Germany. This
shall be achieved by developing an integrated model complex that makes
both the socio-economic and[…]

CMAC mobilizes an international network of experts to develop cutting-edge tools and disseminate visionary insights to public and professional stakeholders. We aim to deepen understanding of complex adaptive social systems i[…]

We have an opportunity for a Research Associate in Computational Social Simulation. This post will be associated with Professor Alison Heppenstall’s Health & Sustainability workstream in the Systems Science in Public Health programme, MRC/CSO Social and Public Health Sciences Unit. You will develop individual-level models, together with the underpinning methods, that capture and simulate the dynamic relationships between the way different places seek to manage their transition to carbon neu[…]

The research project “A network science approach to social cohesion in European societies” (PATCHWORK), funded by the European Research Council (ERC Advanced Grant awarded to Dr. Miranda Lubbers), announces the recruitment of a pre-doctoral researcher in agent-based modeling and simulation of societal networks and their effects at the newly founded Laboratory for Computational Analysis of Egonetworks, Social Cohesion and Exclusion (COALESCE Lab) at the Department of Social and Cultural Anth[…]
