Data Science Education postdoc, Mathematics Department, Colorado State University

Dear colleagues,

We’re excited to announce that the Department of Mathematics at Colorado State University will be hiring several postdoctoral fellows to start in the Fall 2023. These are contract-renewable positions for three years depending on funding. The positions are open to any area of mathematics, but our group is particularly interested in postdocs working in the area of data science education with a mathematical data science focus. The postdoc will directly work with a professor who researches mathematical data science and teaches data science courses, Emily King, as well as mathematics education faculty Hortensia Soto and Liz Arnold. The postdoc will have the opportunity to interact with further researchers in mathematical data science and mathematics education in the department.

An ideal candidate will have a PhD in either mathematics with a focus on data science or in mathematics/statistics education. The breadth of the research interests of the mentors will help guide the postdoc to broaden their knowledge base to encompass data science education with a mathematical data science focus.

You can view the job posting on MathJobs: https://www.mathjobs.org/jobs/list/20999. Candidates must apply through CSU’s HR website: https://jobs.colostate.edu/postings/113465

Please share this message with anyone who might be interested in applying. And, if you have any questions, feel free to ask any of us.

Emily King – research in mathematical data science, applied harmonic analysis, algebraic/geometric/combinatorial methods in frame theory; also involved with curriculum development for the Data Science Major at CSU
Hortensia Soto – research in teaching and learning of undergraduate mathematics through the lens of embodied cognition
Liz Arnold – research in MKT at the secondary level; K-12 mathematical modeling; preparation & development of K-12 mathematics and statistics teachers

Best wishes,

Emily, Liz, and Hortensia
