Call for Expressions of Interest: Associate and Full Professorships in Mathematics and Computer Science

The Department of Mathematics “Tullio Levi-Civita” at the University of Padova invites expressions of interest for permanent academic positions in any area of Mathematics and Computer Science, at the Associate Professor or Full Professor level. Appointments are expected to be made through the direct call (chiamata diretta) procedure established by the Italian Ministry of University and Research. The Department seeks outstanding researchers with internationally recognized records of high-impact research, scientific excellence, and academic leadership. Particular attention will be given to candidates whose expertise would broaden and enrich the Department’s existing scientific competences. Eligibility Candidates must have held an equivalent permanent academic position outside Italy for at least three years. The three-year requirement must be completed by the application deadline, 15 January 2027. Candidates who are unsure about their eligibility are encouraged to contact the Department for a confidential preliminary enquiry. Application documents Candidates should submit: 1. A brief motivation letter outlining their future research plans and expected contribution to the Department’s long-term scientific strategy; 2. A curriculum vitae describing their scientific career; 3. A complete list of publications; 4. The names and contact details of up to three referees. Reference letters may be requested during the evaluation process. Applications must be submitted by 15 January 2027 through: https://web.math.unipd.it/services/calls/ Submitting an expression of interest does not commit either the candidate or the Department to proceed with a direct call. The Department expects to complete its internal selection by 31 May 2027. Candidates will subsequently be informed by email whether their expression of interest will be considered for the direct-call procedure. Enquiries: calls@math.unipd.it The Department of Mathematics is committed to promoting equality, diversity, and inclusion.
