Mathematics - Visiting Professor (Open Rank)

Description

The Division of Science at NYU Abu Dhabi is searching for accomplished visiting faculty in Mathematics to educate the next generation of global thinkers. Multidisciplinary research and exceptional teaching in a highly diverse and inclusive campus community are hallmarks of the University’s mission.

Applicants holding a PhD, with teaching experience in all areas of mathematics, both pure and applied, are welcome to apply. Candidates are expected to be excellent teachers of undergraduate courses. The visiting position is for one academic year and the expected teaching load is four courses. The classes are relatively small and typically have, at most, 24 students.

Faculty in the Program in Mathematics have strong ties to NYU Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences. Current interests of the faculty include:

• Analysis, PDEs and Applications
• Geometry, Topology and Algebra
• Probability Theory and Statistical Mechanics

In addition, faculty contribute to multidisciplinary research, potentially working with scholars from other programs in areas that include cryptography, bioinformatics, and biostatistics, data science and artificial intelligence, environmental science, and climate change, among others. Faculty have access to state-of-the-art core facilities that include robotics and high-performance computing facilities with more than 6,400 computing cores and a peak performance of 70 TFLOPS. The environment in the Math Program is congenial, and we encourage cooperation and support collaboration among all members.

Qualifications

This position requires a Ph.D. in Mathematics. We seek individuals who have a proven record of excellence in teaching, a strong record of scholarship, and the ability to develop and lead high-quality research.
