Connectionists: Faculty position in Math Biology at NJIT

[Casey Diekman]

The Department of Mathematical Sciences (DMS) at New Jersey Institute of
Technology (NJIT) invites applications for a tenure-track position at the
assistant professor level in mathematical biology. A second DMS
tenure-track assistant professor position in the broader area of applied
mathematics is advertised separately (links provided below). The
appointment is to start in Fall 2018. Candidates should have a Ph.D. in
mathematics, applied mathematics or a related discipline, with an
established record of independent research, strong potential for seeking
external research support, and a commitment to teaching at graduate and
undergraduate levels.

Candidates working in any subfield of mathematical biology will be given
consideration. Currently, members of the DMS mathematical biology group are
engaged in research in computational neuroscience, biological rhythms,
biofluids and mechanosensing.

The second position in applied mathematics is advertised separately at:
https://njit.csod.com/ats/careersite/JobDetails.aspx?site=1&id=30.

Submissions must include (a) cover letter, (b) resume/CV, (c) research
statement, (d) teaching statement, and (e) names and contact information
for at least four references. Review of applications will begin immediately
and will continue until the position is filled. Please direct any questions
to the search committee chair, Victor Matveev, at matveev at njit.edu.

DMS is recognized for its strong program in applied mathematics, which
offers B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees, with Ph.D. program tracks in applied
mathematics as well as in applied probability and statistics. NJIT is in
the University Heights neighborhood next to vibrant downtown Newark, about
12 miles west of New York City. The NJIT campus is adjacent to the campus
of Rutgers-Newark, with which it shares several academic programs. DMS has
close collaborative ties to the Department of Biological Sciences at NJIT.
Excellent potential for outside collaboration is also afforded by the close
geographic proximity of NJIT to other prominent centers for biological
research such as the Center for Molecular and Behavioral Neuroscience at
Rutgers-Newark, New Jersey Medical School, NYU, Columbia University, and
Rockefeller University. Apart from mathematical biology, DMS faculty work
in diverse fields of applied mathematics including fluid dynamics, granular
matter, nonlinear waves, applied analysis, scientific computing, dynamical
systems, and probability and statistics.

NJIT is an Equal Opportunity / Affirmative Action Employer and encourages
women, minorities, persons with disabilities and Vietnam era and disabled
veterans to apply.
