Faculty position in Math Biology at NJIT

[Victor Matveev]

Dear systems neuroscience list members,

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
mat...@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, underrepresented minorities, persons with disabilities
and Vietnam era and disabled veterans to apply.
