Assistant Professor of Mathematics

Lyon College seeks qualified candidates for an Assistant Professor of Mathematics beginning in August 2022. Applicants should have a Ph.D. in mathematics, applied mathematics, statistics, or a related quantitative field with preference given to those who specialize in one or more areas of applied mathematics. Candidates who are ABD will be given serious consideration. The primary requirement is excellence in teaching, but research potential is also important. The successful applicant will be able to teach a broad range of undergraduate mathematics classes including Differential Equations, Probability and Statistics, Numerical Analysis, and special topics courses in applied mathematics. Furthermore, the successful applicant will be enthusiastic about teaching core courses that have a significant impact on student retention. Additional responsibilities include academic advising and service on college committees.

Experience at a small, residential liberal arts college as a student or as a faculty member is desirable. Absent that experience, an understanding of the difference between a small college and a university and the desire to be on the faculty of a small college are important. Salary is commensurate with experience and qualifications.
