The Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Vermont is seeking applicants for a non-tenure-track position at the rank of Lecturer, with duties to start in August of 2024.
The applicant must have an earned M.S. or Ph.D. in Statistics or a closely related area, a strong teaching record, and the ability to teach a variety of Statistics courses effectively. Prior experience teaching statistics is essential, and prior experience or willingness to teach in hybrid or online formats is a plus. Prior experience teaching undergraduate-level statistics is highly desirable, as is prior experience or willingness to teach using active learning and project-based methods.
The successful candidate will be expected to teach a typical course load (4 courses) during each of two semesters per year. A modest amount of service and academic advising is also expected. There is no research-related workload associated with this position. The appointment period is nine months per year, but opportunities for teaching additional summer courses may be available for additional compensation. UVM offers generous benefits packages, including health, dental, retirement contributions, and tuition remission.

We are an educationally purposeful community seeking to prepare students to be accountable leaders in a diverse and changing world.

To that end, candidates must provide a diversity impact statement as part of the application detailing how they will further the diversity of the college through their teaching and service at the University. The application is considered incomplete without this document.
