United States Naval AcademyTenure-track Assistant Professorship in StatisticsDepartment of Mathematics Applications are invited for an anticipated tenure-track position (subject to approval and funding) in statistics at the assistant professor level to start in August 2010. Candidates must have a Ph.D. in statistics or biostatistics. A Ph.D. in a mathematical science with applied statistical experience may also be considered. Candidates must demonstrate a strong commitment to undergraduate teaching and should exhibit potential to continue an active scholarly program. Promotion and tenure evaluations follow the American Association of University Professors guidelines. The USNA Mathematics Department currently has two faculty members with primary interests in statistics and offers both introductory and advanced statistics courses. The successful candidate will work with these faculty members to continue to develop the statistics curriculum at USNA. Candidates will be expected to teach all levels of undergraduate statistics, as well as offer advanced courses in their own areas of interest. The Mathematics Department also includes a group of faculty whose primary interests are in Operations Research and administers a quantitative economics major jointly with the Economics Department, which offer opportunities for both teaching and research collaboration. Because this position resides in the mathematics department, candidates may also be asked to teach more core mathematics courses. The Mathematics Department at USNA consists of 42 civilians with Ph.D.'s and 18 Military Officers typically with M.S.'s. Full summer research support is usually available for the first three years of new appointments. In addition, USNA continues to provide partial research support in the form of matching funads for research collaborations with Department of Defense, government, and industry laboratories. Funding is also available to aid in the development of research with undergraduates. Faculty members receive full federal government service benefits. Additional information about USNA and the Mathematics Department can be found at the website http://www.usna.edu/MathDept/website/index.htm. Applicants should provide a letter of application that includes a statement of professional goals (including both a teaching statement and a research statement), a C.V., three letters of reference (at least one of which is devoted to the applicant's experience and promise as a teacher), and copies of undergraduate and graduate transcripts. Applications will be evaluated starting in December 2009.
