Hale Assistant Professor Positions in the School of Mathematics

The School of Mathematics at the Georgia Institute of Technology invites applications for several non-tenure track Hale Assistant Professorships to begin in Fall 2025, though –pending administrative approval- an appointment may begin sooner as well. The position consists of an annually renewable three-year research and teaching appointment as a Visiting Assistant Professor in the School. In addition to a reduced teaching load in the first year, the position includes research funding. Candidates are expected to demonstrate an exceptional commitment to the teaching and mentoring of students.

Georgia Tech prides itself on its technological resources, collaborations, high-quality student body, and its commitment to building an outstanding and diverse community of learning, discovery, and creation. We strongly encourage applicants whose values align with our institutional values, as outlined in our Strategic Plan. These values include academic excellence, diversity of thought and experience, inquiry and innovation, collaboration and community, and ethical behavior and stewardship. 

Responsibilities include developing an international level research program; collaborating across the university in research and grant efforts; teaching undergraduate and/or graduate courses. 

Minimum and Preferred Qualifications for these positions are: (1) a PhD or its equivalent in the Mathematical Sciences, granted not more than 5 years prior the start of the appointment; (2) potential to carry out research of exceptional quality at Georgia Tech; (3) research interests complementary to existing strengths in the School of Mathematics; (4) strong potential for external funding; (5) the ability in teaching, scholarship, and/or service that contributes to the Institute’s Student Success Criteria. Consistent with these priorities, candidates will be considered in all areas of Pure and Applied Mathematics and Statistics

Applications must consist of i) a cover letter expressing interest in the position, ii) curriculum vitae, including a list of publications, iii) a research statement including a summary of future research plans, iv) at least four letters of reference including one teaching letter of reference, and v) evidence of teaching interest, abilities, and related experience summarized in a teaching statement.

An earned doctorate is required by the start of the appointment, and a background check must be completed prior to beginning employment. Application materials should be submitted to http://www.mathjobs.org. The Georgia Tech official website for applications is https://hr.gatech.edu/careers. Some candidates who do not apply there at first may later be asked to send their applications to that site for further processing.
