Located on Chicago’s vibrantly multicultural North Side, LUC is committed to creating a diverse, inclusive, and responsive community of faculty, students, and staff. As an urban-based Department we are dedicated to mentoring a diverse student body, many of whom come from under-represented and under-served populations. We especially encourage applications from candidates from under-represented groups. We also encourage applications from scholars committed to interdisciplinarity and the successful pursuit of external grants.

Duties and Responsibilities: The position requires teaching a range of math courses, from lower-level courses that serve non-science students to upper-level and graduate-level courses in mathematics and applied mathematics; developing and maintaining a quality research program; and providing service at the department, the university, and the scientific community level.

Minimum Qualifications: The candidate will have a Ph.D. in mathematics or a related field at the time of appointment. Candidates for the position must show evidence of, or strong potential for, maintaining a research program in applied mathematics, with the potential for grant funding. Candidates whose research programs align with others in the department are particularly desirable. Additionally, the candidate will have demonstrated commitment to undergraduate education, including interest in inclusive teaching practices. The candidate also must be willing to support the mission of LUC and the goals of a Jesuit Catholic Education.
