**Who are we looking for?**

Queensland University of Technology (QUT) is seeking a Postdoctoral Fellow in Computational Statistics to join School of Mathematical Sciences, Faculty of Science, Academic Division.

The School of Mathematical Sciences is seeking to recruit a talented researcher in applied and computational statistics to develop novel methods in Bayesian design and inference to advance data collection processes in ecology.

**Real world impact**

QUT is a major Australian university with a global outlook and a 'real world' focus. We are an ambitious and collaborative institution that seeks to equip our students and graduates with the skills they will need in an increasingly disrupted and challenged world.

The School of Mathematical Sciences (SMS) is a vibrant, multidisciplinary school with extensive teaching and research programs covering the fields of statistics, operations research and applied and computational mathematics.

There are currently 29 full-time academic staff members employed in the School, including 12 Professors.

Over the past five years staff of the school have held ten prestigious Australian Research Council fellowships including a Laureate fellowship, four ARC Discovery Early Career fellowships and five Future fellowships. Three of our professors are recognised among Australia's seven most highly cited researchers in mathematics, and QUT’s Centre for Data Science is led by a Fellow of both the Australian Academy of Science and the Australian Academy of Social Sciences.

The School offers Bachelor degrees in both Mathematics and Data Science, as well as a postgraduate program at Masters (research) and PhD levels. The Bachelor of Mathematics degree has majors in our three key areas of expertise; Statistics, Operations Research and Applied and Computational Mathematics.

**What you need to succeed**
