Faculty Positions Available for 2012-2013
Tenure-Track Positions
The department does not anticipate regular tenure track openings for Fall 2012 at this time.Visiting Assistant (Postdoctoral) Professorships
The department anticipates filling several positions at the postdoctoral level for the 2012-13 academic year. These are three-year positions and carry a teaching load of three courses per year (either 2-1 or 1-2). Priority will be given to candidates whose research interests mesh with existing research groups within the department. Recent Ph.D. recipients and those expecting their Ph.D. by summer, 2012 are encouraged to apply.
Since the expectation is for collaborative efforts with our existing faculty, the application letter/form should identify those permanent department members or groups with which they have close research interests. Prior teaching experience is normally required for postdoctoral positions. The application deadline is December 15, 2011.
Visiting Associate/Full Professorships
Subject to availability of funding, we expect to make a limited number of visiting senior appointments. These may be for a single semester or a one year period. Preference will be given to individuals whose research interests mesh with those of the department and who have partial support from other sources, such as grants or their home institution.
The Application Process
To expedite your application, please complete our Online Hiring Form. This automatically submits an AMS Application Cover Sheet with your data to the department.
In common with every department we struggle with how to assimilate the large amount of hiring data we receive. Our main concern is getting all of several hundred applications to the appropriate faculty members. While our staff can by now recognize broad categories such as "partial differential equations" and "algebra", they will be at a loss with "modular elliptic curves".
Thus at the minimum, please include the relevant primary and secondary interest numbers from the AMS Mathematics Subject Classification with your application (the online hiring form requires this).
A printable copy of the AMS Application Cover Sheet(PDF) is also available.
Applicants should send a completed AMS Application Cover Sheet,
a Vita, complete the online hiring form, and arrange to have letters
of recommendation sent to:
