The Mathematics Department at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology invites applications for multiple tenure-track faculty positions at the Assistant Professor level, starting in the Fall of 2022.  Our mission is “to provide students with the world’s best undergraduate science, engineering, and mathematics education in an environment of individual attention and support.”  If this resonates with you, then we think you’ll love what we have to offer.

We seek inspiring educators who will strengthen our degree programs in mathematics, biomathematics, data science, computational science, or our minor in statistics. We will consider candidates with expertise in any area of the mathematical sciences.

Requirements include a doctorate (or be near completion) in Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, Statistics, or a closely-related field by start of employment. Candidates are expected to have a strong commitment to excellence in undergraduate teaching and continued scholarly and professional development. Experience teaching undergraduate courses in the mathematical sciences with full responsibility is preferred.

The department and the institute place a high value on engaging students from traditionally underrepresented groups, and candidates from these groups are especially encouraged to apply.  Individuals who interact well with both students and faculty within our science, engineering and computer science programs are especially encouraged to apply. Essential job functions include classroom teaching, curriculum development and continuous improvement, research and other professional development activities, student advising and service to the department and institute.

Rose-Hulman is an institute of technology with approximately 2100 undergraduate engineering, science and mathematics students, with most of the undergraduate students in the engineering disciplines. Every undergraduate student on campus is required to take at least five mathematics courses, consisting of calculus, differential equations and either statistics or probability.  In support of our mission, our class sizes are small, typically under 25. As a result, our mathematics faculty is large (over 25) and we are able to offer a wide range of upper-level elective courses.  More information regarding our department can be found at http://www.rose-hulman.edu/math.

Application: Applicants must submit their application through Rose-Hulman’s Faculty Employment Opportunities website.  Applicants must submit the following items:

1.      Cover letter

2.      Statement on teaching philosophy and practices, while demonstrating that you share our passion for teaching and mentoring undergraduate students.

3.      Statement on professional development/research goals.  Note that the mathematics department broadly defines professional development as “growth in a faculty member’s understanding of mathematics, its application, or growth in pedagogical skills.” 

4.      Statement demonstrating commitment to diversity and inclusion.  This statement should highlight your particular strengths, experiences, or perspectives that might serve to broaden and enhance our students’ educational experience.

5.      Curriculum vitae

6.      Graduate transcripts (official or unofficial)

7.      Contact information for at least three (3) letters of recommendation (with at least one specifically addressing the applicant's teaching ability and experience). 

Review of applications will begin on November 15 and will continue until the positions are filled.  All completed applications received by December 10 will be given full consideration.  Candidates who plan to attend the AMS-MAA Joint Meetings in Seattle should note this in their cover letter.
