Tenure track position in Applied Mathematics (McGill University)

created by paolini on 11 Oct 2011

Deadline: 6 jan 2012

The Department of Mathematics and Statistics at McGill University invites applications for a tenure-track position in applied mathematics. While appointments are expected to be made at the Assistant Professor level, more senior applicants would be considered.

The appointment is expected to be in the broad area of differential equations and scientific computing. Applicants should have expertise in both analytical and computational aspects, and an active interest in problems driven by applications.

Candidates must have a doctoral degree at the date of appointment and a strong background in mathematics. They are expected to have demonstrated the capacity for independent research of excellent quality. Selection criteria include research accomplishments, as well as potential contributions to the Department’s educational programs at the graduate and undergraduate levels.

Applications should be made through MathJobs.Org (Position ID: McGill-APNUM) and must include a curriculum vitae, a list of publications, a research outline, a teaching statement which includes an account of teaching experience, and at least four references (with one addressing the teaching record). Candidates are also encouraged to provide web links for up to three selected reprints or preprints, or to upload them to MathJobs.Org.

Candidates must ensure that letters of reference are submitted (preferably through mathjobs.org, though in exceptional circumstances they may be mailed to Professor R. Choksi, Applied Mathematics Search Committee, Dept. of Mathematics and Statistics, McGill University, 805 Sherbrooke St. W. Montreal, QC H3A 2K6, Canada).

To ensure full consideration, complete applications including letters of reference should be received by January 6th 2012, but later applications may be considered.
