Accomplished researchers in all areas of applied mathematics are invited to apply. The main criteria for selection are research and teaching excellence. Qualified candidates will show evidence of a research program leading to high quality publications in respected venues. The Department seeks candidates who demonstrate strong teaching potential in areas and at levels that fit its needs. The successful candidate's research will complement the areas of study already represented and will raise the overall research profile of the Department. Applied mathematicians whose research interests are applicable to emerging health challenges in the 21st century are especially encouraged to apply. The successful candidate will also be expected to make contributions through service to the Department, the Faculty, the University, and/or the broader community. Candidates must have a PhD or equivalent degree completed at the start date of the appointment. Salary will be commensurate with qualifications and experience.

Applications that do not include this information will be deemed incomplete.

In addition, the impact of certain circumstances that may legitimately affect a candidate’s record of research achievement will be given careful consideration when assessing the candidate’s research productivity. Candidates are encouraged to provide any relevant information about their experience and/or career interruptions.

A complete application consists of:

• a cover letter (including one of the two statements regarding Canadian citizenship / permanent resident status specified in the previous paragraph);
• a current Curriculum Vitae (including a list of publications);
• a statement of research interests;
• a statement of teaching interests and experience (including teaching outlines and evaluations if available);
• at least four letters of reference, one of which addresses teaching abilities or potential.

In order to ensure full consideration, complete applications should be received by November 26, 2021. Applicants should apply through MathJobs, a service of the American Mathematical Society that can be used at no charge for those applying for positions. Please visit http://www.mathjobs.org to apply. Recommendation letters can be uploaded directly to MathJobs, or sent by email to position@mast.queensu.ca.

The University will provide support in its recruitment processes to applicants with disabilities, including accommodation that takes into account an applicant’s accessibility needs. If you require accommodation during the interview process, please contact Jeananne Vickery in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics, at position@mast.queensu.ca.
