*** this position has been closed and new applications are no longer accepted. ***

The Mathematics Department at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology invites applications for one or more visiting (non-tenure-track) faculty positions at the Assistant Professor level, starting in the Fall of 2021.  We are seeking applicants who will strengthen our degree programs in mathematics, biomathematics, data science, computational science, or our minor in statistics. We will consider all areas of the mathematical sciences.

Requirements include a doctorate (or be near completion) in Mathematics, Applied Mathematics, Statistics, or a closely-related field by September 1, 2021. Candidates are expected to have a strong commitment to excellence in undergraduate teaching and continued scholarly and professional development. Experience teaching undergraduate mathematics 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 also especially encouraged to apply.  Individuals who also interact well with both students and faculty within our science and engineering programs are especially encouraged to apply. Essential job functions include: classroom teaching, curriculum development and continuous improvement, and professional development activities; there will be minimal service expectations.

Rose-Hulman is an institute of technology with approximately 2000 undergraduate engineering, science and mathematics students, with most of the undergraduate students in the engineering disciplines. 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.”  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 an unusually wide range of upper-level elective courses.  More information regarding our department can be found at http://www.rose-hulman.edu/math.

Application: For full consideration, applicants must submit the following items to https://jobs.rose-hulman.edu and include the following materials: cover letter, a statement on teaching philosophy and practices, a statement on professional development/research goals, a statement demonstrating commitment to diversity and inclusion, curriculum vita, graduate transcripts and contact information for three letters of recommendation (with at least one specifically addressing the applicant's teaching ability and experience). Review of applications will begin on March 29, 2021 and will continue until the position is filled.
