UATX invites applications for multiple faculty positions in the Center for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (CSTEM), to begin on or after 1 July 2024. Start dates in 2025 or 2026 may be available by negotiation. Rank: open. Specializations: Computer Science, Data Science, Mathematics, Statistics, Operations Research, Physics. Teaching load: six class hours per week during term-time, or the equivalent of 2/2 in the American semester system. Salary: highly competitive.

CSTEM directly supports the core mission of UATX. The University strives to build and sustain a community based on the lively clash of ideas and opinions in an atmosphere of open inquiry and civil discourse. Treasuring both the wisdom of the past and the transformative potential of novel ideas, we seek to preserve and transmit humanity’s rich intellectual, scientific, artistic, and cultural inheritance while vigorously pursuing the discovery, creation, and communication of new knowledge. These endeavors depend on fostering an environment of intellectual freedom and pluralism.

Like all faculty at UATX, faculty in CSTEM will be expected to maintain the highest standards of pedagogical excellence, to be available in person and in office on the days they teach, to attend weekly common lectures and other academic events outside the classroom, to advise students academically, and to supervise them as they work on their individual Polaris projects (in which students build, create, or discover something that serves the human good).

To apply, please provide: (1) a curriculum vitae; and (2) a cover letter that addresses your interest in, and qualifications for, a faculty position in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics, as well as your commitment to UATX’s principles. Inquiries may be directed to the Dean of CSTEM, David Ruth (druth@uaustin.org). Candidates being considered for interviews will be invited to submit representative publications and a list of references. Review of applications will begin 15 November 2023 and continue until available positions are filled.
