Open Positions

Employment Opportunities:

The Department of Mathematics at West Virginia University invites applications for a full-time, promotable, non tenure-track position at the rank of Teaching Assistant Professor, beginning August 2010.  Applicants with potential for excellence in teaching at the undergraduate level are encouraged to apply.   A doctorate in mathematics, mathematics education or a related discipline in hand is expected by the time of appointment, with preference given to candidates with successful teaching experience and/or other evidence of effective teaching skills.  The initial term is for one-year, renewable thereafter for up to three-year terms contingent upon performance.  The teaching load is four (4) courses or equivalent per semester, primarily teaching in the calculus sequence, with the possibility of a one-course equivalent per semester for coordination of a course, participation in curriculum development, or other substantial support activities. Teaching Assistant Professors at WVU are eligible for promotion, however promotion to senior ranks is not a requirement for institutional commitment and career stability in a Teaching Faculty appointment.  The assignment is 80% teaching and 20% service; there is no traditional research expectation for the Teaching professor track.  Applicants should submit their curriculum vitae, AMS coversheet, a statement of teaching philosophy and arrange for at least three letters of recommendations to be sent to
