CUSP is an interdisciplinary research center located in Downtown Brooklyn, dedicated to the application of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics in the service of urban communities globally. Using New York City (NYC) as our laboratory and classroom, we aim to develop novel data- and technology-driven solutions to advance urban understanding and address its complex challenges. CUSP focuses on high-impact areas such as climate change, public health, modern urban infrastructure, and the equitable design, collection, and deployment of urban data and technology.

CUSP strives to benefit NYC and other partners with research that is mission- and impact-oriented, integrating data analytics and technologies for the common good. Our interdisciplinary teams bring together experts from various fields including computer and data science, engineering, and the social sciences.

  • Interest in grant writing and externally funded research
  • Outreach experience is encouraged but not required.

Methodological interests include data science, ML/AI, urban sensing, and complex systems.

Responsibilities

Conduct research independently and as part of teams; develop funded research proposals; connect CUSP with other Tandon/NYU entities; publish in leading venues; mentor students; and teach up to two courses yearly.

Salary range: In compliance with NYC’s Pay Transparency Act, the annual base salary is $75k with competitive benefits, plus funds for travel and professional development. Expected start date is January 15, 2025. Positions are full-time, fixed-term with one-year contracts, renewable based on performance.
