[cmath] Tenure-Track Position in Fluid Dynamics - University of Alberta, Department of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences

[Alan Kelm]

Assistant Professor, Fluid Dynamics

The Department of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences, at the University 
of Alberta, invites applications for a tenure-track Assistant Professor in 
the general areas of fluid dynamics, elasticity and continuum mechanics. 
Under exceptional circumstances, appointments at a higher level would be 
considered. We seek an individual who will complement the Department's 
existing expertise in thin film fluid dynamics, turbulence, wave theory, 
stratified fluids, hydrodynamic stability, and physical oceanography. The 
successful candidate will hold a PhD degree. S/he must have demonstrated 
accomplishments and outstanding promise in research, and a strong 
commitment to graduate and undergraduate teaching. Candidates are also 
expected to possess excellent communication skills and leadership 
potential.

Alberta is one of the leading Mathematics Departments in Canada and has 
strong connections with other mathematical institutes, such as the Pacific 
Institute for the Mathematical Sciences (PIMS), Mathematics of Information 
Technology and Complex Systems (MITACS), and the Banff International 
Research Station (BIRS). For more information about the Department, please 
visit our website at www.math.ualberta.ca.

Applicants should submit their curriculum vitae, a research statement, a 
teaching profile outlining experience and/or interests, and at least three 
confidential letters of reference.  Consideration of applications will 
begin in February 2009; however, the competition will remain open until a 
suitable candidate is found. Early applications are encouraged.

Interested applicants may apply to:
