Chris Drovandi sent me the information that the Statistics Group, QUT, Brisbane, is advertising for three positions:
- Professor in Statistical Data Science (Remuneration package from $AUD206,729 per year)
- Lecturer in Statistical Data Science (Remuneration package of $AUD108,796 to $AUD129,209 per year)
- PhD Scholarship in Computational Bayesian Statistics ($AUD35,000 per year tax-free for 3 years, with an additional $AUD5,000 per year for project costs)
This is a great opportunity, a very active group, and a great location, which I visited several times, so if interested apply before October 1.
