The University of St Andrews is seeking to enhance its teaching and research strengths in Analysis by appointing to Lecturer level within our Pure Mathematics Division in the School of Mathematics and Statistics. The successful candidate will be a scholar with a growing international research reputation and a commitment to delivering high-quality teaching.
We welcome applications from candidates who hold a PhD in Pure Mathematics or a cognate discipline. Although all areas of Analysis will be considered, we are particularly interested in candidates who will be able to work with and complement the existing members of the group and the School more widely. Candidates should have teaching experience at undergraduate or postgraduate level, experience applying relevant analytical skills and teaching techniques to a wide range of learners, good communication skills, and a desire to educate and inform students.
As a research and teaching position, the successful candidate will contribute to the delivery of teaching modules that may range from first-year undergraduate to specialized honors level modules in Pure Mathematics. They will also supervise final-year undergraduate and Masters projects and will have the opportunity to supervise PhD students.
For informal enquiries, we encourage those considering applying to contact the Head of School, Professor Antonia Wilmot-Smith (mathshos@st-andrews.ac.uk); or the Head of the Analysis Research Group, Professor Jonathan Fraser (jmf32@st-andrews.ac.uk).
