Hello all!
I'm really pleased to announce that California State University, Long Beach is searching for a new Assistant Professor of Mathematics Education in the Department of Mathematics & Statistics, position beginning in Fall of 2027.
Check out the information below, including the more extensive position description through the link. Questions can be directed to my department Chair (contact info in the ad) and/or me (as search Chair). And I will be at MathFest and accessible for informal chats.
Long Beach is a lovely place to live. The university and our program are big, allowing most folks to focus their efforts where they are most skilled and passionate. The MTED subgroup works with a large group of educators through content coursework for future elementary teachers, an education option in our undergraduate mathematics BS that contains 5-7 courses that integrate learning about math and education (e.g., a special version of Abstract Algebra for future teachers offered every year), a post-baccalaureate secondary mathematics credential program, and an MS in Mathematics for Educators that serves mainly working secondary teachers. Most of our students are educators of color who grew up in Southern California and want to serve the local communities as teachers.
Cheers, BK
