Tenure-Track Faculty Position
Department of Mathematics, Harvey Mudd College

Harvey Mudd College invites applications for a tenure-track position in 
mathematics, beginning Fall 2020, at the assistant professor level. All 
areas in the mathematical sciences will be considered, with priority for 
candidates who can significantly contribute to our course offerings and 
departmental vision for data science and statistics at a liberal arts 
college of science and engineering.

The successful candidate will have a Ph.D. by the time of appointment, 
demonstrated commitment to and excellence in teaching undergraduates, 
and a strong independent research program that can contribute to our 
many undergraduate research activities, which include summer research, 
senior thesis, and math-in-industry senior capstone projects. Harvey 
Mudd College is committed to broadening participation in STEM fields. 
Therefore, experience with or demonstrated ability to teach, mentor, and 
support students from historically underrepresented groups in STEM is 
among the criteria for appointment.

Harvey Mudd College is a highly selective liberal arts college of 
science, engineering and mathematics. It is located in Claremont, CA, 
which is approximately 35 miles east of Los Angeles, at the foot of the 
San Gabriel Mountains.  All students enter having already taken calculus 
or beyond, and about two-thirds scored between 780 and 800 on their SAT 
2 in Math. The college enrolls about 900 students, almost all of whom 
live on campus, and is a member of the Claremont Colleges, which 
comprises five undergraduate colleges, the Claremont Graduate 
University, and the Keck Graduate Institute of Applied Life Sciences. 
Harvey Mudd College is an equal opportunity employer and is committed to 
the recruitment of candidates historically underrepresented on college 
faculties.

The Department of Mathematics at Harvey Mudd College has been recognized 
as a leader in teaching, research, undergraduate research mentoring, and 
educational outreach. Each year there are about 60 graduates in the 
mathematical sciences. The teaching load is five courses per year, which 
includes research supervision and courses in the college’s core 
curriculum. Further information about the college and the department can 
be found at http://www.hmc.edu/ and https://www.hmc.edu/mathematics/.

Applications must be submitted through the MathJobs.org website. Review 
of applications will begin October 9th, 2019, and continue until the 
position is filled. Priority will be given to applications completed by 
November 20, 2019. Applicants should submit:

• A cover letter. To further assist the search committee in its 
screening process, all cover letters should address your interest in the 
liberal arts and Harvey Mudd College in particular, and how you envision 
your research and teaching interests can contribute to the department 
and College.
• A current curriculum vitae
• A statement about your research program, including potential research 
projects for undergraduates (typically 2-3 pages).
• A statement about your teaching philosophy: describe principles, 
practices, or experiences that inform the way you teach (typically 1-2 
pages).
• A statement about diversity and inclusion: describe your interests, 
experiences, and future plans for promoting diversity and inclusion in 
the mathematical sciences (typically 1-2 pages).
• At least three letters of recommendation. At least one letter should 
specifically address teaching.
