Candidates should have an earned doctorate in Mathematics, Statistics, Data Science, or a related field. ABD will be considered, as will a Master’s with considerable work experience in data science or data analytics. Excellent communication and interpersonal skills are required.

The ideal candidate will coordinate the Data Science major in the department, in conjunction with the Computer Science & Engineering department and other campus partners.

Because Taylor University is a Christ-centered, evangelical, nondenominational, covenant community committed to advancing life-long learning and its mission of ministering the redemptive love and truth of Jesus Christ to a world in need, applicants must confess a personal commitment to Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, have a vibrant Christian faith, and display a passion for the mission and educational philosophy of Taylor University.

The appointee will teach a variety of courses across the standard mathematics curriculum, but ideally will focus on statistics courses at a variety of levels, our introductory data science course, and help develop further courses in the area. The candidate should be comfortable with creative pedagogy, active and holistic learning, and online instruction.

The successful candidate will be expected to develop and maintain an active program of faculty-mentored student research and scholarship. Active membership in professional societies, professional service, student advising, faculty governance responsibilities, and chapel attendance are expected.
