University of Colorado Denver invites applications for a tenure-track
assistant professor position in Numerical Methods and Scientific
Computing and a tenure-track assistant professor position in
Statistics, to start August 2013.
The Department has 16 tenured or tenure-track faculty members whose
research and teaching cover a wide range of areas, including
computational biology, computational and and engineering mathematics,
probability, statistics, graph theory, combinatorics, operations
research, and optimization. The Department has approximately 70 M.S.
and Ph.D. students, and 100 undergraduate mathematics majors. Many
departmental faculty are involved with the Center for Computational
Mathematics, and the University owns a major TOP50 supercomputing
facility with large reserved allocations available.
The regular teaching load is 4 undergraduate or graduate courses per
year, which may be reduced for an initial period. The candidate will
be expected to develop a strong independent research program with
external funding and to teach a variety of courses at both the
graduate and undergraduate levels. A completed doctoral degree, or
expected completion by the start of the appointment, is required.
The candidate should have an excellent record in research commensurate
with the career stage, and strong commitment to quality teaching at
both undergraduate and graduate levels. Further preference will be
given to candidates with demonstrated potential for attracting
external research funding and with research interests compatible with
present faculty research areas which include numerical solutions of
partial differential equations, numerical linear algebra, parallel
computing, mathematical modeling involving systems of PDEs or
stochastic PDEs, data assimilation, quantification of uncertainty,
extreme value theory, high-dimensional data, spatial statistics,
statistical genetic and genomics, Bayesian statistics, and
environmental and ecological applications. In addition, an interest in
interacting with faculty in other research areas in the department
and/or University would be desirable.
Salary is commensurate with skills and experience. The University of
Colorado offers a full benefits package. Information on University
benefits programs, including eligibility, is located at
