We seek a highly qualified candidate with a PhD in Mathematics or closely related field, with research expertise in applied mathematics and a potential for interdisciplinary research. Teaching responsibilities will be at the undergraduate and graduate (Master’s) level.

Requirements: Applicants are expected to have completed a Ph.D. in Mathematics or a closely related field, with research interests in applied mathematics and a potential for interdisciplinary research.

About Fairfield University: Fairfield University is a comprehensive Jesuit institution that prepares students for leadership and service in a constantly changing world. Founded in 1942 in Fairfield, Connecticut, the University has grown from an initial class of 303 undergraduate male students admitted to the College of Arts and Sciences in 1947 into a coeducational university of more than 7,000 undergraduate and graduate students. Along the way, the University has awarded over 45,000 degrees since 1951, developing and supporting a reputation for educational excellence both regionally and nationally.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
