Tenure-Track Job Postings
The College of Arts and Sciences at American University (Washington, DC) invites applications for full-time, tenure-track positions, beginning in fall 2012:
• Computational Neuroscience (broadly defined, including but not limited to neural networks, simulation, image processing, and bio-informatics)
Welcome to the Department of Mathematics and Statistics. Here are a few of the many interesting developments in the department:
- We have three new full-time faculty members joining for fall: statistician Alexandra Kapatou from the private sector, statistician Maria Pospieszalska from the La Jolla Institute for Allergy and Immunology, and mathematician Michael Limarzi from Johns Hopkins.
- Enrollments and numbers of undergraduate majors and minors in the department have been steadily increasing. We now offer two new BS degree programs, a BS in Mathematics and Economics and a BS in Computational Science, developed jointly with the Department of Computer Science.
- This summer we welcomed our third class of students to our Math for America program. This program, in conjunction with the School of Education, Teaching, and Health and the Carnegie Institution, trains outstanding mathematics graduates from around the country to teach in the DC schools.
- Over the course of the semester, we are redesigning the Gray Hall lobby to make it a better hang-out spot for our students.
- Our statistical consulting lab begins its third year of service to AU graduate students and faculty who need statistical help with their research.
Our website provides information about our degree programs, faculty, news, and events. If you need further information or have a question, please email mathstat@american.edu or call 202-885-3120.
