About this position
The Department of Mathematics at The University of Arizona is seeking a Postdoctoral Research Associate beginning in Fall 2027. The appointment is renewable for up to three years, contingent on satisfactory performance, and is framed as an opportunity to maintain an active research program while contributing to the department’s teaching mission.
The postdoctoral role sits within a large and active mathematics department that emphasizes internationally recognized research, graduate education, award-winning undergraduate programs, and outreach to local schools. The position also connects with the department’s professional development program for postdocs, which is intended to support early-career researchers as they develop their academic profile.
The successful candidate will be part of a research environment with substantial external grant activity and a broad departmental research culture. The post includes a normal teaching commitment of nine units per year, equivalent to three one-semester courses annually.
Candidates are asked to identify up to three faculty members as potential mentors and to explain in their research statement how their work can both benefit from and contribute to the department’s research efforts.
