The initial appointment period will be four years and the appointment may be renewed (based on programmatic need, funding, and performance). The appointment is subject to final approval by the college.

Responsibilities*

A typical full-time (100% effort) load for a Lecturer III in the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts is three courses per semester, or the equivalent in administrative and/or service duties.

Required Qualifications*

Qualified candidates will have a doctorate in Mathematics prior to the start date of the position and have substantial experience teaching mathematics at the collegiate level. Additionally, the candidate will have professional actuarial credentials, with preference for candidates holding Fellowship-level designation such as FSA, FCAS, FIA, or an equivalent internationally recognized credential.

Demonstrated university-level teaching experience, preferably including courses in actuarial mathematics, probability, statistics, financial mathematics, or related quantitative disciplines. Criteria for selection and renewal include excellence in classroom teaching, demonstrated administrative skill, and the ability to work productively with faculty and staff in our departments.

Desired Qualifications*

-Fellowship-level actuarial credentials and significant professional actuarial experience.

-Experience teaching courses aligned with SOA or CAS examination pathways.

-A record of peer-reviewed publications in actuarial science, mathematics, statistics, finance, risk, or related fields.
