The Pomona College Department of Mathematics and Statistics invites

the department seeks to create a supportive community for all students. We

improving access to and success in higher education. Pomona College is a highly selective residential liberal arts college located
35 miles east of downtown Los Angeles. It is the founding member of the
Claremont Colleges, a consortium of seven institutions with over forty active
mathematicians. Fifty-two percent of our current cohort of first-year
students (class of 2023) self-identify as domestic students of color, 11%
international and 19% are first generation college students. Pomona College
is an equal opportunity employer and invites applications from women and
members of underrepresented groups. A complete application includes a cover letter, curriculum vitae, graduate
transcripts, three or more letters of recommendation (at least one of which
evaluates teaching), a description (for the non-specialist) of research plans
and accomplishments, a statement of teaching philosophy, and a diversity
statement. Applicants must be eligible to work in the United States (this
