The Department of Mathematics at Michigan State University invites applications for Fixed- Term Departmental Postdoctoral Research Associates (Postdocs) and Fixed-Term Research Associates with a starting date of Fall 2023.

Candidates are required to have a Ph.D. in Mathematics by August 10, 2023.  Applications from all areas of mathematical research will be considered.  Research Associates will be paired with faculty mentors with whom they have compatible research interests and will engage in our active instructional mentoring program.

Applicants should submit a curriculum vitae, statements on research and on teaching, and arrange for at least four (4) letters of recommendation to be submitted, one of which must specifically address the applicant's teaching experiences.  It is helpful if the cover letter indicates if the applicant wishes to be considered by specific MSU faculty.

Submit your application directly at https://www.mathjobs.org/jobs/list/20448.  The evaluation process will begin on December 1, 2022, and review of applications will continue until positions are filled.  A background check is required for employment.
