LSA Collegiate Fellows Program/Tenure Track Assistant Professor

The Department of Mathematics at the University of Michigan will have several openings available over the next few years.  In particular, we seek exceptional applicants for the LSA Collegiate Fellows Program (LCF). The candidate is expected to have an established research
program.  The College of Literature, Science and the Arts (LSA) and the University seek applicants whose research, teaching, and service will contribute to diversity and equal opportunity in higher education. The program is particularly interested in scholars with a
demonstrated interest in bringing to their teaching, mentoring, service, engagement, and/or research the critical perspectives that come from underrepresented educational backgrounds and pathways or scholarly understanding of the experiences of groups who are historically marginalized in higher education. Fellows participate in a program that includes faculty mentoring, professional development, and academic networking opportunities. These fellowships may be held either prior to or simultaneously with a possible tenure track appointment. 

We ask that applicants submit their materials to the department by October 3, 2022, if possible, but applications will continue to be accepted after that date and considered when possible. This early submission is strongly recommended and allows us to interview candidates in September, prior to the LCF program deadline. The LCF program considers scholars across multiple disciplines and is administered by the College of LSA. The department can assist applicants in confirming their eligibility.

To be considered, please apply at both MathJobs and through the LSA Collegiate Fellows
Program (LCF) website. The following materials are required: (1) Cover Letter, (2) curriculum vitae, (3) research statement, (4) statement that shows your commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion, (5) teaching statement, and (6) names and contact information of three references. Research, personal, and teaching statements are recommended to be up to two pages each. Inquiries should be directed to math-search@umich.edu.

The University of Michigan is an Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer. Women and
minorities are encouraged to apply. The University is supportive of dual-career couples.

The University of Michigan, Department of Mathematics, invites applications for Postdoctoral Assistant Professorships, Byrne Research Assistant Professorships, and D.J. Lewis Research Assistant Professorships, to begin August 28, 2023.  These non-tenure-track positions may be renewed annually for up to three years, and are designed to provide mathematicians with favorable circumstances for academic career development in research and teaching. Assistant professorships have a teaching responsibility of two courses per semester; Byrne and DJ Lewis
Research positions have reduced teaching loads. These positions may be combined with other postdoctoral fellowships and grant funding, giving additional reductions in teaching responsibility. Preference is given to candidates who receive the Ph.D. degree in 2022 or later and who submit a completed application by December 15, 2022.  Application materials should be submitted electronically through the AMS MathJobs website. Alternatively, applications may be sent to: Postdoctoral Hiring Committee, Department of Mathematics, University of Michigan, 2074 East Hall, 530 Church Street, Ann Arbor, MI 48109-1043. Salary is competitive and there are also opportunities for supplemental summer salary. Please provide a placement dossier consisting of a letter of application, curriculum vitae, and three letters of recommendation.  In all cases, please provide a statement of teaching philosophy and experience, evidence of teaching excellence, and a statement of current and future research plans.
