The Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Vassar College invites applications for a one-year visiting position in mathematics beginning the Fall 2022 semester.

Vassar College is an affirmative action and equal opportunity employer with a strong commitment to increasing the diversity of the campus community and the curriculum, and promoting an environment of equality, inclusion, and respect for difference. Candidates who can contribute to this goal through their teaching, research, advising, and other activities are encouraged to identify their strengths and experiences in this area. Individuals from groups whose underrepresentation in the American professoriate has been severe and longstanding are particularly encouraged to apply.

Vassar is a highly selective, coeducational liberal arts college of about 2400 undergraduates (no graduate students) located in the beautiful and historic Hudson Valley seventy-five miles north of New York City. The city of Poughkeepsie benefits from rich cultural diversity and from convenient commuter rail access to New York City. Vassar faculty are committed teachers/scholars who bring research and creative discovery to life for students in classrooms, labs, and studios and in individually mentored projects. They teach broadly in the curricula of their departments, advise students, and serve on college-wide and departmental committees. The College maintains a generous leave policy, provides strong support for research, and encourages multidisciplinary approaches to teaching.

This is a one-year visiting position for the 2022-2023 academic year. The ideal candidate will have a PhD in mathematics or a related field and a dedication to undergraduate education. The successful candidate will teach 5 mathematics classes.

Candidates should submit the materials listed on Mathjobs at https://www.mathjobs.org/jobs/list/20072. The statement of teaching philosophy should be 1-2 pages that includes reflections on promoting diversity, equity and inclusion in the classroom. Candidates may submit separate 1-page teaching and diversity statements if they prefer.

Please address any questions to Benjamin Lotto, chair, via email to lotto@vassar.edu. Review of applicant materials will begin immediately and will continue until the position has been filled.
