Tenure Track Position, Fluid Dynamics

The Department of Mathematical and Statistical Sciences, at the University 
of Alberta, invites applications for a tenure-track position in the 
general area of fluid dynamics at the Assistant Professor 
level. Appointment at a higher level may be possible under exceptional 
circumstances. We offer an excellent research environment with a normal 
teaching load of three courses per year.

The University of Alberta has 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 information about the 
Department, please visit our website at www.math.ualberta.ca. For 
information about the Fluid Dynamics Group, see www.math.ualberta.ca/~gfd

The successful candidate will hold a PhD or international equivalent; have 
established accomplishments and outstanding promise in research; as well 
as a strong commitment to graduate and undergraduate teaching. We seek an 
individual who will complement the department's existing expertise in 
turbulence, waves and shock theory, stratified fluids, hydrodynamic 
stability, physical oceanography and climatology. In addition to 
developing a strong research program, the successful candidate will be 
expected to teach undergraduate and graduate courses, including 
mathematical fluid dynamics, numerical methods and advanced partial 
differential equations.

Applicants should submit their curriculum vitae, a research statement, a 
teaching profile outlining experience and interests, and at least three 
confidential letters of reference. Review of applications will begin on 
November 13, 2009; however, the competition will remain open until 
filled. Early applications are encouraged.
