Description

The Department of Mathematics is expecting one to three opening(s)

for fall 2027.

Excellence in research and teaching is at the core of our mission.
The graduate program of the Department of Mathematics is
consistently ranked among the best by US News, with several
research areas in the top ten. Our core faculty includes around 50
tenured and tenure-track members, many of whom have attracted top
national and international distinctions. Moreover, we are home to a
talented group of professional track and postdoctoral faculty, and
a large and diverse population of highly motivated and talented
graduate students. Strengths in our research program include many
areas in pure and applied mathematics, as well as interdisciplinary
fields intersecting engineering, neuroscience, computer science,
medicine, finance, and natural sciences, among others.

As the flagship public university in Texas, a core part of our
mission is the education of undergraduate students from all over
this large and varied state, in a supportive environment. Austin,
the capital of Texas, is well known for its high quality of living,
its thriving economy, and for being a center for high-technology
industry, including companies such as Amazon, AMD, Apple, Applied
Materials, AT&T, Dell, Google, IBM, National Instruments, and
Samsung.

Each R.H. Bing Fellow holds an Instructorship in the Department of
Mathematics with a teaching load of one course per long semester.
The combined Instructorship-Fellowship stipend for nine months is
$60,000, which is supplemented by an annual research allowance of
$2,000. Pending satisfactory performance of teaching duties, the
Fellowship can be renewed for two additional years. Applicants must
show outstanding promise in research. Bing Fellowship applicants
will automatically be considered for other departmental openings at
the postdoctoral level, so a separate application for such a
position is unnecessary.
