Two-Year Visiting Faculty Position in Statistics
Company Information
Reed is a coeducational, independent liberal arts and sciences college located in Southeast Portland, Oregon. Referred to as one of the most intellectual colleges in the country, we are known for our high standards of scholarly practice, creative thinking, and engaged citizenship.
The Reed College Department of Mathematics and Statistics invites applications for a two-year visiting faculty position in statistics to begin in August 2024. Candidates with degrees in fields outside of statistics are welcome to apply, but they should have sufficient training in statistics and have data analysis experience in order to be considered. Proficiency with the statistical software package R is required. We welcome applications from individuals who may have had nontraditional career paths or who have achieved excellence in statistical careers outside of academia. An Equal Opportunity Employer, Reed values diversity and encourages applications from members of underrepresented groups.
The successful candidate will teach the equivalent of five semester courses per year (two to three distinct course preparations, including introductory statistics), participate in pedagogical and curricular discussions related to our growing statistics and data science program, and supervise senior theses. The senior thesis is a cornerstone of the Reed College academic experience. It is a year-long project, required of every student, that culminates in a written document and an oral defense. Applicants are encouraged to suggest potential thesis projects in their research statement and to describe any experience mentoring students.
