Position Description
BRANDEIS UNIVERSITY Department of Mathematics invites applications for a 3-year postdoctoral position beginning fall 2026, subject to budgetary approval. These positions can be renewed beyond the 3-year period pending budgetary approval and satisfactory performance. The teaching commitment is three semester courses per year. Candidates must have a Ph.D., demonstrate potential for excellence in research, and display a commitment to undergraduate and graduate teaching. Candidates in all areas of pure and applied mathematics will be considered; applications from under-represented groups are strongly encouraged. The search committee is particularly interested in candidates who, through their research, teaching and/or service experiences, will increase Brandeis’ reputation for academic excellence and better prepare its students for a pluralistic society. Applications should include an AMS coversheet, a curriculum vitae, a teaching statement, a research statement, a list of publications and three letters of recommendation, one of which addresses teaching effectiveness. Applications should be submitted through Mathjobs.org/jobs. First consideration will be given to applications received by January 23, 2026. Brandeis University is an excellent employer for the same reasons it is an outstanding university: its dedication to academic excellence and its commitment to inclusion, which sit at the core of Brandeis’ history and mission. We take pride not only in maintaining this culture, but in expanding it — by recruiting and retaining outstanding faculty who, through their scholarly pursuits, teaching and/or service experiences, bring expertise in building, engaging and sustaining a pluralistic, unified, and just campus community.
