The Department of Mathematics at the University of California, Irvine, is seeking outstanding candidates to fill one tenure-track Assistant Professor position to start July 1, 2021. This position is in the area of Mathematical and Computational Biology in support of the NSF-Simons Center for Multiscale Cell Fate Research (CMCF). The successful applicant will have significant opportunities for interdisciplinary research interactions facilitated by CMCF. Applicants must hold a Ph.D. in Mathematics or related disciplines, and should have demonstrated excellence in research and teaching.

The review process starts November 1, 2020 and will continue until the positions are filled. Applicants should submit a cover letter, curriculum vitae, a minimum of three letters of reference, a research statement, and a teaching statement. A separate statement that addresses past and/or potential contributions to diversity, equity and inclusion should also be included in the application materials.

The University of California is committed to creating and maintaining a community dedicated to the advancement, application, and transmission of knowledge and creative endeavors through academic excellence, where all individuals who participate in University programs and activities can work and learn together in a safe and secure environment, free of violence, harassment, discrimination, exploitation, or intimidation. With this commitment as well as a commitment to addressing all forms of academic misconduct, UC Irvine conducts institutional reference checks for candidates finalists to whom the department or other hiring unit would like to extend a formal offer of appointment into Ladder Rank Professor or Professor of Teaching series, at all ranks (i.e., assistant, associate, and full). The institutional reference checks involve contacting the administration of the applicant’s previous institution(s) to ask whether there have been substantiated findings of misconduct that would violate the University’s Faculty Code of Conduct. To implement this process, UC Irvine requires all candidates of Ladder Rank Professor or Professor of Teaching series, at all ranks (i.e., assistant, associate, and full) to complete, sign, and upload the form entitled “Authorization to Release Information” into AP RECRUIT as part of their application. If the candidate does not include the signed authorization to release information with the application materials, the application will be considered incomplete. As with any incomplete application, the application will not receive further consideration. Although all applicants for faculty recruitments must complete the entire application, only finalists (i.e., those to whom the department or other hiring unit would like to extend a formal offer) considered for Ladder Rank Professor or Professor of Teaching series, at all ranks (i.e., assistant, associate, and full) positions will be subject to institutional reference checks.

These documents should be submitted using the on-line recruitment system at https://recruit.ap.uci.edu/JPF06399.
