The Department of Mathematics and Statistics invites applications for a tenure-track position in applied mathematics. While the appointment is expected to be made at the level of an Assistant Professor, the Department would consider applicants for a senior position.

The appointment is expected to be in the field of optimization (continuous or discrete). Applicants should have a strong mathematical background and an active interest in problems driven by applications.

Candidates must have a doctoral degree at the date of appointment. They are also expected to have demonstrated the capacity for independent research of excellent quality. Selection criteria include research accomplishments, as well as potential contributions to the educational programs of the Department at the graduate and undergraduate levels, particularly in the area of continuous optimization.

Applications with a curriculum vitae, a list of publications, a research outline, an account of teaching experience, a statement on teaching, and the names, phone numbers and e-mail addresses of at least four references (with one addressing the teaching record) should be sent to:

Professor A. R. Humphries,
Chair, Applied Mathematics Search Committee,
Department of Mathematics & Statistics,
McGill University,
805 Sherbrooke St. W.,
Montreal, QC, Canada. H3A 2K6.

Candidates must arrange to have the letters of recommendation sent directly to the above address. Candidates are encouraged to include copies of up to 3 selected reprints or preprints with their applications.

To ensure full consideration, applications must be received by January 6, 2006.

In accordance with Canadian Immigration requirements, priority will be given to Canadian citizens and permanent residents. However, all outstanding candidates will be considered. McGill University is committed to equity in employment.
