Teaching Assistant Professor

The Department of Statistics at the University of Pittsburgh invites applications for one Teaching Assistant Professor position to begin in Fall 2025, pending budgetary approval. The position is outside the tenure stream, with the expectation of rolling multi-year contract renewals for the successful teaching faculty. Minimum qualifications are that candidates should have earned their Ph.D. in Statistics or a closely related discipline by Fall 2025, have demonstrated excellence in teaching undergraduate courses, be capable of teaching applied master's courses, and have an interest in innovative instruction. The normal teaching load is three courses each semester. Reductions in teaching may be possible depending on approved non-instructional activities supported by the teaching faculty. Additional information about the department is at www.stat.pitt.edu. For informal inquiries about this position, contact Dr. Yu Cheng at yucheng@pitt.edu.

Applicants should send a detailed cover letter, a curriculum vitae, a diversity statement, and a teaching portfolio (with a statement of teaching philosophy, sample course syllabi, assignments, and evaluations of teaching by students or supervisors) by applying to the Talent Center requisition. Applicants should also arrange for three letters of recommendation to be sent to pittstat@pitt.edu. A review of completed files will begin on December 1, 2024, and continue until the position is filled.
