Jobs & Appointments

A leading computational research team seeks candidates—starting September/October 2025 and willing to relocate to Norway—who can work independently and collaboratively on simulation models and stakeholder-friendly interfaces. Senior Researchers will lead tasks and work packages, publish high-impact papers, and oversee project deliverables, while all team members are expected to produce high-quality research, author scientific articles, and present results internationally.

At Utrecht University, The Netherlands, we have TWO fully-funded PhD positions available on spatial agent-based modelling to analyze environmental exposure. Would you like to dive into this? Join us as a PhD candidate!

Aarhus University invite applications for a 28-month full time (37h/w) fixed-term postdoctoral position in Simulation and Modelling.
The position focuses on designing and implementing the agent-based modeling component of research projects in code, requiring proficiency in programming and simulation development.

The Department of Management at Aarhus BSS, Aarhus University, invites applications for a 3-year postdoc position in the Novo Nordisk Foundation-funded project “PlantTip” focusing on modelling food consumer behavior and policy responses.

The position comes with an earmarked travel and training budget, and will be part of a generally well-funded project with access to HPCs and local LLMs. The position is full-time research but teaching can be negotiated if candidates are interested.

UAB invites applications for a fellowship focused on the development and optimization of real ABMs applications and extending the synthetic agent-based models for performance evaluation.
At the application domain level, the potential of agent-based modelling (ABMs) for realistic simulation of social networks makes it important to define optimization policies that consider the specific characteristics of this type of application.

Agent-based modelling position to develop theories of transformative change in social-ecological systems, particularly in the context of natural resource management and food systems. The modeller will work in close cooperation with empirical researchers and philosophers to translate empirical and theoretical knowledge into ABMs and use the models to test and further develop hypotheses about transformative change. She/he/them will also work on developing methods for causal analysis of ABMs.

The aim of this project is to understand and quantify the roles of sociocultural and biophysical factors in the evolution of linguistic diversity using an agent-based modelling approach. The spatial agent-based model should simulate how and where languages (agents) change, merge, and split over time. You will use linguistics theory in combination with large datasets of environmental, demographic, sociocultural and linguistic variables to define the model rules.

The ERC project ARISER (Access to crop diversity and small farms’ resilience to climate variability in African drylands: The role of seed and information networks, https://www.ariser.org/en) is seeking for a postdoctoral research fellow experienced in the modelling of social-ecological systems

The Center for Connected Learning & Computer-Based Modeling (CCL) at Northwestern University is looking for a
full-time Software Developer to work on NetLogo. If you are a system builder and can design and implement a whole
application independently, this position is ideal for you! Start date as soon as possible. Please apply via [email protected], which is faster than applying via the web site. See detailed description.

An exciting opportunity to improve systems simulation modelling in tackling the complex challenges in health and social care. The project focus is on understanding how personalised, technology-facilitated home care can efficiently meet current and future demands of health and social care for older adults. Systems simulation modelling (ABM, SD, DES, and hybrid models) has lacked a coherent theory for incorporating health-related behaviour—crucial to addressing this topic.
