The Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Lancaster
University invites applications for a lectureship in Discrete
Mathematics. Details are below.<br>
<br>
Lecturer in Pure Mathematics (Discrete Mathematics)<br>
Mathematics & Statistics<br>
Salary: £36,382 to £40,927<br>
Closing Date: Sunday 12 June 2022<br>
Interview Date: Thursday 30 June 2022<br>
Reference: 0159-22<br>
Applications are sought from candidates working in discrete
mathematics, broadly understood, with a proven track record of
publishing research of international quality. You should
demonstrate a clear potential for attracting research funding and
for being a capable and enthusiastic contributor to the
Department’s undergraduate programmes.<br>
<br>
Lancaster is one of the UK’s top departments in Mathematics and
Statistics, ranked 5th overall in the 2014 Research Excellence
Framework and 3rd for the impact of its research. The Department
currently has 49 members of academic staff, 26 research associates
and over 70 research students. Lancaster University was the 2020
Times and Sunday Times International University of the Year, and
has been named NEON Higher Education Institution of the Year 2021
for delivering an innovative and progressive programme of
activities for Widening Participation students from primary school
through to the workplace.<br>
<br>
This is an exciting time to join our thriving Pure Mathematics
section, which includes 7 professors, 11 readers or senior
lecturers and 6 lecturers. Its research is organised around six
themes: Algebra & Geometry, Analysis, Combinatorics, Geometric
Rigidity, Mathematical Physics and Probability. We wish to appoint
a lecturer whose research interests complement those of our
Combinatorics and Geometric Rigidity themes.<br>
<br>
We welcome applications from all diversity groups. The Department
provides an environment which aims to meet the individual needs of
each member of staff. All new lecturers are provided with
mentoring and support, with a carefully selected group lead taking
responsibility for personal development, and have a reduced
teaching and administrative load for the first three years. We are
committed to family-friendly and flexible working policies, and
seek to promote a healthy work-life balance. The University is a
charter member of Athena Swan and has held a Bronze award since
2008, in recognition of good employment practice to address gender
equality in higher education and research. The Department achieved
its own Athena Swan Bronze award in 2017 and is a registered
supporter of the London Mathematical Society’s Good Practice
Scheme. We are thus committed to the Athena Swan Charter, which
recognises and celebrates good employment practice undertaken to
address gender equality in higher education and research. We will
consider applications to work on a part-time, flexible and
job-share basis wherever possible and habitually agree to flexible
modes of working.<br>
<br>
Informal enquiries can be made to the Head of Department,
Professor Alexander Belton (<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:a.belton@lancaster.ac.uk">a.belton@lancaster.ac.uk</a>) and the
Research Theme Leads for Combinatorics and Geometric Rigidity, Dr
Tony Nixon (<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:a.nixon@lancaster.ac.uk">a.nixon@lancaster.ac.uk</a>) and Dr Bernd Schulze
(<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:b.schulze@lancaster.ac.uk">b.schulze@lancaster.ac.uk</a>).<br>
<br>
Please use the covering letter to explain your suitability for
this role and how you will contribute to the Department. General
