The Department of Mathematics at Bilkent University invites applications for teaching-track faculty positions at all ranks, starting in September 2027. Candidates must hold a graduate degree in mathematics, statistics or a related field and have an excellent teaching record commensurate with the rank. A Ph.D. is strongly preferred; however, applicants with a master's degree and a strong teaching background will also be considered. The department has broad research strengths in both pure and applied mathematics, and outstanding candidates from all areas of mathematics are encouraged to apply.

Teaching-track faculty are primarily responsible for teaching undergraduate courses and, where applicable, graduate courses. Although research is not their main focus, the university encourages them to remain academically active. Appointments at all levels are made by the Rector upon the recommendation of the Provost. Initial appointments are for two years, followed by annual reappointments.

Instructor – the primary teaching-track rank; may be specialized where needed.

Lecturer – an advanced teaching-track rank.

Senior Lecturer – the highest teaching-track rank.

Assistant Professor of Teaching – a teaching-track position for early-career applicants with strong teaching potential whose primary focus is teaching rather than independent research.

The language of instruction is English. The academic year consists of two semesters, and the usual teaching load is twelve lecture hours per semester. The university offers a competitive salary, private health insurance and meal cards. Qualified applicants may also be eligible for a K-12 tuition subsidy at Bilkent's International School, and in rare cases fully furnished on-campus housing free of charge is offered to exceptional candidates.

Bilkent is a non-profit foundation university with a beautiful campus and an international faculty, located in the western suburbs of Ankara, the capital of Türkiye. It is among the leading universities in Türkiye and the surrounding region: according to the QS rankings, Bilkent is among the top 100 universities worldwide under 50 years of age and ranks 20th among universities in Emerging Europe and Central Asia.

Applications are accepted on a rolling basis; those received by January 10, 2027 will be given priority. At least two reference letters must be teaching focused. Due to the high volume of applications, only short-listed candidates will be contacted.
