TENURE TRACK FACULTY POSITIONS
       DEPARTMENT OF MATHEMATICS AND STATISTICS
        OLD DOMINION UNIVERSITY, NORFOLK, VIRGINIA

Applications are invited for two or more tenure-track faculty positions in the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Old Dominion University. It is anticipated that at least one of the successful candidates will be from an area of statistics or probability, including applied statistics, computational statistics, or biostatistics. Successful candidates will have a Ph.D. in mathematics, statistics, or a related field, strong demonstrated or potential ability to build a sponsored research program, excellent pedagogical skills, and a desire to teach at both undergraduate and graduate levels. Effective communication skills are required. Candidates should be interested in contributing to a strong interdisciplinary atmosphere within the College of Sciences. It is anticipated that all appointments will be made at the Assistant Professor level; however, outstanding candidates of higher rank will be considered as resources permit.
