Dear CAUSEweb friends,

 

We are excited to post this advertisement for a tenure-track position in Statistics with a starting date as early as August 2023! We also have several ongoing non-tenure-track openings in Statistics, Data Science, and Mathematics - you can see the full gamut of open positions at at Truman's jobs page


In addition to our undergraduate statistics major, and several minors, Truman has a relatively new Masters in Data Science and Analytical Storytelling, combining statistics and technical coding skills with broader skills (I’d never call them “soft”) including writing, rhetoric, design, and ethics. In its second year, this fully-only program has quickly become the largest graduate program on our primarily undergraduate campus.

 

The ten (after this successful search) statistics faculty at Truman are dedicated to excellent teaching and  mentoring, building connections with students not just in our program, but across campus, including a required introductory statistics course for all undergraduates. We also support students and faculty in statistics-related areas, including business, accounting, psychology, economics, biology, health, education, linguistics, environmental science, and our new major in cannabis & natural medicinals. Truman scores well in rankings like US News and Washington Monthly because of our commitment to students and student learning, while embracing a teacher-scholar model that connects our scholarly research to the classroom.

 

The full posting for the tenure-track position can be found here:

Review of candidates will start in Mid-June, and I'd be happy to answer any questions to salberts@truman.edu.
