The Center for Survey Research, Research Center for Humanities and Social Sciences (RCHSS) in Academia Sinica, Taiwan is looking for motivated candidates specializing in survey and quantitative methodologies, computational social science, or data science to join the Center. We are an interdisciplinary team of social scientists and data science researchers with the goal of integrating different research methods to advance understanding of human behaviors and social issues. We invite applications from outstanding candidates for the tenure-track position at the Assistant, Associate, or Full Research Fellow level (equivalent to Assistant, Associate, or Full Professors, respectively, at university).

Academia Sinica invites applications and nominations for the position of Director of the Institute of Earth Sciences
(IES), with an anticipated start date of May 1, 2026.
The IES, established in 1982, is one of thirty-three institutes under Academia Sinica (AS), the premier research
institution in Taiwan. The Institute is located in a dedicated six-story facility, with additional annexes, on the AS main
campus in eastern Taipei. The current research staff comprises approximately 35 tenure-track scientists, supported
by ~40 postdoctoral fellows, a technical engineering team, and professional administrative personnel.
See more information on website: https://www.earth.sinica.edu.tw/.
IES conducts cutting-edge research in geophysics and geochemistry, addressing both regional and global
geoscientific problems. In geophysics, the Institute has developed recognized strengths in seismology,
tectonophysics, and, more recently, in geodesy, with an emphasis on GNSS and remote sensing for active tectonic
studies.
The Institute operates and maintains several regional-scale geophysical and geodetic monitoring networks across
Taiwan and Southeast Asia.
In geochemistry, the Institute houses state-of-the-art analytical facilities supporting research in isotope geochemistry, cosmochemistry, volcanology, orogenic processes, and crust-mantle evolution.
IES fosters an interdisciplinary research environment and maintains strong collaborations with domestic and international institutions.

主要工作為學術研究，不需授課。另須參與所內或院內之相關學術服務，資深者亦需參與指導年輕學者。本院工作環境優良，有新進研究人員福利；本所亦將提供新進研究人員充裕之研究資源及相關經費，以利啟動研究工作。The primary duty is academic research, with no teaching required.The successful candidate will be joining a vibrant research only program in linguistics with substantial research resources, two active research laboratories (Phonetics and Cognitive Linguistics) and competitive benefits.Other expectations for the position include: applying for extramural funding, participating in Institute activities, performing institutional and academy service, and mentoring junior faculty members when applicable.

The Institute of European and American Studies (IEAS) at Academia Sinica in Taiwan is seeking applications for an open-rank faculty position (Assistant Research Fellow (tenure-track), Associate Research Fellow (with consideration for tenure), or Research Fellow (with tenure); which respectively correspond to Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, and Full Professor, but without teaching obligations). The Institute is recruiting in all areas of European and American Studies, with particularly favorable consideration in the fields of British/American/Anglophone Literature (including Cultural Studies); U.S.-Taiwan-China Relations (including U.S. foreign relations, security, and U.S. politics); Demography, Social Stratification; and EU politics, preferably EU environmental politics/Degrowth, EU external relations, preferably EU–Russia relations, EU and Central/Eastern Europe.

Successful candidates will join a highly interactive research environment with state-of-the-art core facilities in stem cells, animal care, imaging, genomics, bioinformatics as well as a marine research station. We are looking for creative scientists to establish their own independent research programs that could strengthen existing research areas at the institute.

1. Conduct research on metabolic and bioenergetic mechanisms related to human diseases.
2. Apply metabolomics, lipidomics, and metabolic flux analyses to explore processes at the interface of metabolism and immunology.
3.Publish, secure funding, and mentor students and trainees.

The position involves conducting data mining, knowledge extraction, and data analysis to advance the Center’s research, knowledge extraction, and data analysis. Specific responsibilities include:
1.Analyzing the content, dissemination, and evolution of online public opinion.
2.Applying big data analytics and artificial intelligence methods in social science research.
3.Developing computational systems to enhance the sharing of knowledge and its social impact.
4.Act as project/team leader, responsible for progress planning, task assignment, and performance supervision.
