Application Instructions
Review of applications will begin April 23rd and continue until the position is filled. Interested applicants are encouraged to submit a cover letter, resume and the names with contact information of at least two (2) professional references to our application service, Interfolio.

If you have not had experience TA-ing for a Calculus Lab, or working as a Mathematics Teaching Fellow, ask someone who can attest to your ability to assist student learning to submit a reference letter.

International students are welcome to apply. However, if you are earning a mathematics minor and not a mathematics major, you will need to work with faculty in your major department to obtain an approved proposal for a shared position, working roughly 5 hours per week with that department. This is a requirement for your VISA status and the proposal must be received before your application will be considered ready for consideration. Please see Prof. Erika L.C. King for details or questions.
