Position Description:
Expected opening for Fall 2024 includes Instructorships
associated to R.H. Bing Faculty Fellowship.
Excellence in research and teaching is at the core of our
mission. The graduate program of the Department of Mathematics is consistently
ranked among the best by US News, with several research areas in the top ten.
Our core faculty includes around 50 tenured and tenure-track members, many of
whom have attracted top national and international distinctions. Moreover, we
are home to a talented group of professional track and postdoctoral faculty,
and a large and diverse population of highly motivated and talented graduate
students. Strengths in our research program include many areas in pure and
applied mathematics, as well as interdisciplinary fields intersecting
engineering, neuroscience, computer science, medicine, finance, and natural
sciences, among others.
As the flagship public university in Texas, a core part of
our mission is the education of undergraduate students from all over this large
and varied state, in an inclusive and supportive environment. Austin, the
capital of Texas, is well known for its high quality of living, its thriving
economy, and for being a center for high-technology industry, including
companies such as Amazon, AMD, Apple, Applied Materials, AT&T, Dell,
Google, IBM, National Instruments, and Samsung.
