The American University in Bulgaria is searching for adjunct faculty to support the teaching needs of the Department of Mathematics and Science in the area of mathematics.
We are looking for someone who will be a devoted teacher of statistics and an active researcher in any area of mathematics or closely related field.
The successful candidate will be responsible for teaching three undergraduate course sections each semester. At least two of these will be our foundational introductory statistics (non-calculus) course designed for non-mathematics majors. Additionally, there may be opportunities to teach various other mathematics courses, subject to the needs of the department.
MAT 1000 Introductory Mathematics is tailored for students who face challenges in mathematics. We are looking for someone who will be empathetic towards the needs of these students. The other courses are included in our General Education program, which means they attract a diverse group of students. Students range from those with a keen interest in mathematics to those majoring in varied fields such as media studies, marketing, politics, and history.
This position is part-time and begins in early September 2024.
The successful candidate will possess the following:
