"Adjunct Faculty: Mathematics"

Job Description

The Mathematics Department, Division of STEM and Education, invites applications for the following anticipated adjunct faculty vacancies for the Fall 2025 semester:

Developmental Mathematics

Location: Lynn and Danvers Campuses - Day and Evening

Developmental courses include topical coverage of foundational mathematics skills (solving relevant mathematical problems using numeracy, mathematical thinking and investigations, proportional reasoning, personal financial applications and fundamental algebraic reasoning) as well as courses teaching basic algebraic concepts that prepare students for college level mathematics in the STEM/Business pathways (solving equations, graphing linear equations in two variables, solving systems of equations and operations on polynomials). Technology and real-life applications are integrated throughout all courses.

College-Level Statistics and Support for Statistics

Location: Lynn and Danvers Campuses - Day and Evening

This course is an introduction to descriptive and inferential statistics and the basic laws of probability as used in business, social science, or education. Topics examined are: frequency distributions, measures of central tendency, measures of dispersion, normal distributions, confidence intervals, sampling, introduction to hypothesis testing, correlation, and linear regression. Other topics such as chi-square distribution and F-distribution will be covered as time permits. This course emphasizes the practical understanding and use of concepts and procedures essential to statistical analysis (statistical software may be used at the instructor's discretion for solving applied problems). Fulfills open, liberal arts, and mathematics electives.

The corequisite course Support for Statistics is designed to strengthen mathematics skills needed for the success in the college-level MAT143 courses. The course will include academic support to complete assignments covering topics from both the support and college level course. Real-world application problems will be emphasized.
