We’re hiring! UW–Madison’s Math Department is looking for someone to join our outstanding (IMHO) collection of teaching faculty. This position works with new faculty and postdocs to provide teaching mentorship.

Our teaching faculty positions come with a lot of job security, despite not being tenure-stream. Six of us left tenured (or comparable) positions at small private or regional comprehensive universities to join the department.
Madison is a great place to live! I ride my e-bike to campus on dedicated bike paths most of the year. We also have a solid (heavily-subsidized for employees) bus system for commuting since parking on campus is limited (and hence expensive).
We get great teaching assignments! Other than the precalculus coordinators (two separate positions), the rest of us teach only calculus or higher. AND, it’s not just huge lectures! This is just my second time in six semesters teaching a class with more than 40 students.
We have professional development funds that make attending a big meeting like MathFest or JMM each year completely feasible. We’re also establishing a tradition of attending the WI MAA meeting and taking students.
