The Department of Mathematics at the University of Arizona welcomes applications for Postdoctoral Research Associates. Pending funding approval, these appointments are beginning in Fall 2021.

Members of the department create, communicate, and apply mathematics of the highest caliber through activities such as internationally recognized research and graduate education, award winning undergraduate programs, and extensive outreach to local schools. Postdoctoral Research Associates will benefit from a robust program of professional development, see http://postdoc.math.arizona.edu for details.

Candidates should identify up to three faculty as potential mentors, and explain how their research can both benefit from, and enhance, our research endeavors within their Statement of Research Interests.

Review or applicants will begin on 12/01/20. Applications will be accepted until the positions are filled.

Outstanding UA benefits include health, dental, vision, and life insurance; paid vacation, sick leave, and holidays; UA/ASU/NAU tuition reduction for the employee and qualified family members; access to UA recreation and cultural activities; and more!
