students are expected.

Scholarship duties include conducting research in applied
mathematics or statistics, disseminating research through
publications in refereed professional journals, and seeking
external funding to support research activities.

Service duties include serving on departmental and university
committees and participating in recruitment and retention efforts.

community involvement and serving in the professional
community.

The College of Science is also recruiting new faculty in biology

or applied mathematics (for independent or collaborative research
in nutrition and women's health). Applications from partners or
