3 tenure track position at FEMTO-ST

In 3 of its strategic research priorities: micro-nanotechnologies, artificial intelligence and sustainable development.

A Tenure Track position at the Université Marie et Louis Pasteur (UMLP) in microtechnology for health. The person recruited will be based at FEMTO-ST in the MN2S department.

A Tenure Track position at SUPMICROTECH-ENSMM in Explainable and Physically-Informed Artificial Intelligence for data-driven modeling of complex dynamic systems. The person recruited will be hosted at FEMTO-ST in the AS2M department

A Tenure Track position at UTBM on Digital twins for modern power electronics applied to emerging energy systems. The person recruited for this position will be based at FEMTO-ST, in the Energy department.

The Tenure Track position is a new way of recruiting university professors in France. Recruitment is based on a research and teaching project submitted by a PhD holder. Each successful candidate will sign a Tenure contract lasting between 3 and 6 years. At the end of this period, and after evaluation of the CPJ's professional merit by a tenure commission, the CPJ will be recruited as a full-professor. Each CPJ will benefit from FEMTO-ST's research infrastructures, with its 10 shared platforms, and support from the ANR (French national research agency) with a 200,000 euros grant, which may be supplemented by additional funding (from the Region, etc.).

Join us in Besançon or Belfort and become part of one of the largest CNRS public research laboratories in engineering and computer sciences, through the three regional universities: Université Marie et Louis Pasteur, SUPMICROTECH-ENSMM or Université de Technologie de Belfort-Montbéliard.
