The Department of Mathematics at the University of Georgia invites applications for an Academic Professional, beginning July 1, 2008. Complete applications, including letters of reference, must be received by January 15, 2008 to ensure full consideration.

Applicants should hold, or expect to hold by January 1, 2009, a PhD in mathematics, in mathematics education, or a related area, and should display a strong commitment to excellence in education.

Please submit all applications online through Mathjobs.org via http://www.mathjobs.org/jobs.

This Academic Professional position is an academic year, non-tenure track appointment, with additional preparatory duties during Summer 2008 (for which salary will be supplemented accordingly). The chief responsibilities will be to serve as the coordinator primarily for Precalculus (Math 1113), and secondarily for Calculus I (Math 2200). Additionally, the individual hired will teach an average of four courses per academic year, usually Math 1113 and Math 2200, with the possibility for additional employment during the Summer term in later years.

Math 1113, serving around 2000 students each year, is largely taught by Instructors and graduate student TAs, with all testing done by computer. Candidates should have experience in teaching Calculus and Precalculus.  They should be comfortable using mathematics educational software such as Maple, Mathematica, WeBWorK, etc. They should have good organizational and interpersonal skills.  Duties will include managing the computer testing system, writing and coding new problems, overseeing the testing lab, and evaluating and overseeing the implementation of the relevant educational software systems. The position is also charged with the responsibility to change the course as needed to better serve the changing mathematical preparation of our incoming students, and to seek outside funding, when appropriate, for innovative approaches in teaching lower division mathematics courses.

The application must include a completed AMS Standard Cover Sheet, Curriculum Vitae, and a statement on teaching experience and philosophy.  In addition applicants should arrange three letters of reference.  If possible the letters should be submitted online on the mathjobs site; however if necessary they may also be sent by ordinary mail to
