Ahmedabad University is seeking to appoint faculty members at all levels
in the division of Mathematical and Physical Sciences at its School of Arts and
Sciences. Currently, we are looking for faculty whose research lies in any
field of Pure Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, and Statistics. While we are particularly looking for applicants specialising in number theory, algebra, analysis,
topology, geometry, probability, combinatorics, etc, candidates in
interdiscilipnary areas like Financial
and Actuarial Mathematics, Mathematical Economics, Mathematical Physics, Quantum
Compution or in any other field are also encouraged to apply. All candidates will
be expected to teach at the undergraduate and graduate levels in the upcoming
Undergraduate and Graduate Mathematics Programmes at Ahmedabad University and
also to teach some interdisciplinary courses in other programmes of the
University. Candidates in the field of Undergraduate Mathematics Education
Pedagogy are also encouraged to apply. At this stage, we
are not defining areas of specialisation, but will in time move to clusters of
expertise as the faculty develops. This is an exciting opportunity to join a
fast-growing school in India in a dynamic new private university with a public
ethos. Applicants must
have a doctorate and a postdoctoral fellowship from institutions with
international recognition. Appointees will be expected to engage in quality
research, to publish in their specialist field, to teach and guide
undergraduates, to seek opportunities to win external funding for their
research, and to supervise and examine both undergraduate and graduate work.
They must have an existing record of excellence and potential, commensurate
with their appointment level and stage of career. They will be expected to
provide evidence of excellence as demonstrated by publications in leading
academic journals or a research project at an international level, an emerging
record of scholarly accomplishments, and presentations at significant
conferences. The University provides a seed grant for faculty projects and a
Faculty Development Allowance. Ahmedabad
University supports innovative, interdisciplinary, project-based education, and
asserts the centrality of both the arts and the sciences in a broad, fulfilling
education. We welcome applications from scholars with strong communication
skills who can contribute to imaginative learning, and have a willingness to
work collaboratively as part of a community of emerging scholars. Ahmedabad
University is committed to diversity, and welcomes applications from qualified
persons from underrepresented groups regardless of ethnicity, gender, religion
