Mathematics & Statistics Department

Visiting Assistant Professor in Mathematics

The Reed College Mathematics Department invites applications for a one-year visiting assistant professorship in mathematics, to begin in Fall 2016. Applicants should have a Ph.D. in mathematics.  Applicants from all fields of mathematics are welcome.  Pending approval, the Mathematics Department may also be seeking a second visitor, either for the entire academic year 2016-7 or for one semester. 

Reed is a distinguished liberal arts college with 1400 students that offers a demanding academic program to bright and dedicated undergraduates. The successful candidate is expected to teach the equivalent of five semester courses per year and to supervise senior theses (required of all students).

The Reed community believes that cultural diversity is essential to the excellence of our academic program. All applicants are invited to address how their teaching, scholarship, mentoring, community service, or other activities could support Reed's commitment to diversity and inclusion (http://www.reed.edu/diversity/). 

Applications must be submitted through the MathJobs.org website at http://www.mathjobs.org/jobs/Reed, and should include a cover letter, curriculum vitae, teaching statement, research statement, and three letters of recommendation. The cover letter should address how the applicant's teaching and scholarship are suited to the liberal arts college environment. Applications will be accepted until the position is filled, but they should be received by February 1, 2016 to guarantee full consideration. An equal opportunity employer, Reed College encourages applications from members of underrepresented groups.

Deadline: February 1, 2016
