<p>The University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) Department of
Mathematics and Statistics invites applications for an open-rank
faculty member, as related to cybersecurity (broadly defined), to
begin in August 2025. The appointment is 9 months per year.
Candidates should have finished their PhD in Mathematics, Applied
Mathematics, Statistics, or an appropriately related field before
