Professorship (W3) – Machine Learning in Agriculture

to be filled at the earliest possible date.

Faculty of Agricultural, Nutritional, and Engineering Sciences

Deadline:

30.11.2024

Starting date:

at the earliest opportunity

Machine learning is an increasingly important method in science. To exploit the full potential of this general method for agriculture, we are looking for a person who can demonstrate relevant, internationally visible scientific work on developing methods or applications of machine learning.

The successful candidate is expected to contribute to the Cluster of Excellence EXC 2070 PhenoRob and help develop future interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary research initiatives of the faculty. Thus, the application of machine learning in the field of agriculture, especially in the context of crop production, is essential for future work but not a prerequisite for this position. A possible field of research could be the fusion of process-based and data-driven models.

Success in acquiring and implementing third-party-funded projects is a prerequisite. In teaching, the subject area is to be represented in both mandatory and elective courses in the B.Sc. and M.Sc. degree programs of the Faculty of Agricultural, Nutritional, and Engineering Sciences.

The formal requirements are regulated by §36 Hochschulgesetz NRW.

Diversity and equal opportunity

The University of Bonn is committed to diversity and equal opportunity. It is certified as a family-friendly university and has a dual career service. It aims to increase the proportion of women in areas where women are under-represented and to facilitate their careers. The University of Bonn, therefore, strongly encourages women with relevant qualifications to apply. Applications will be dealt with in accordance with the Landesgleichstellungsgesetz (State Equality Act). Applications from suitable individuals with certified serious disability and those of equal status are particularly welcome.
