The Department of Statistics has a strong interdisciplinary tradition, focused on development and implementation of state-of-the-art and impactful methods for solving topical data-driven problems in natural and social sciences, medicine and engineering, and for advancing the statistical theory and
computational tools that underpin those methods. The department is equally interested in junior applicants, with a demonstrated strong research potential, as well as senior applicants, with proven high-level accomplishments. Candidates with research interests in all areas of statistics will be considered.
All applicants should have a commitment of excellence to the core teaching and inclusivity missions of the department, at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. They should also have clear enthusiasm for helping our collegial department continue to grow, specifically in the areas of programmatic and curricula development. Finally, successful candidates will be expected to contribute, commensurate with their career stage, to a diverse funding portfolio, for both their own research platforms as well as for the PhD program, through the submission of grant applications.

Applicants should hold, or expect to hold, a PhD degree in statistics, biostatistics or a related field by Spring/Summer 2027.

UCI Professors are members of the University of California Academic Senate and have all the usual benefits of Senate membership, including eligibility to participate in UCI's faculty housing program.

The review of applications will begin November 19, 2026, and full consideration will be given to all applications received by this date.
