Once again, we are hiring a tenure-track statistician here at Colby College, in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics! I should have posted this sooner; but if you are looking for an opportunity to teach Statistics and Data Science at a strong liberal arts college with great students and colleagues, please consider applying:
https://mathjobs.org/jobs/jobs/14358
We will give full consideration to applications received by this Monday, October 14, but review will continue until the position is filled. If you have concerns about making this deadline, or if you have any other questions, please do get in touch: jawieczo@colby.edu … I would also be happy to answer any questions about the position, Colby College, or our city of Waterville, Maine.
Some things that I am particularly excited about this year:
- a recent multi-million-dollar gift that is funding Data Science courses, curricular development, speakers, and other activities — and strong encouragement to spend that gift on interdisciplinary projects with colleagues across campus (for example, I have co-organized a data visualization workshop with faculty in Biology and proposed a first-year course cluster to be co-taught with faculty in English);
- our Office of Civic Engagement‘s support for my survey sampling course, in which we are working with the Waterville Fire Department to design and carry out a large-scale survey of city residents;
- our department colloquium, full of engaging talks on mathematics and statistics, as well as our annual Runnals Dinner for Women in Mathematics — this year’s speaker is Dr Mahlet Tadesse.
