Candidates from groups historically and systemically excluded in STEM are encouraged to apply. Successful candidates will have a strong track record in undergraduate teaching, positive experience as coordinator of diverse teaching teams, proven success in teaching in a liberal arts environment, and leadership in curriculum development for inquiry-based learning and culturally relevant pedagogy. Although not required, we will value candidates with evidence of leadership in research on mathematics and STEM education and implications for gender and marginalized student inclusion in mathematics teaching and learning and leadership in developing equity in STEM.
