Vassar is a highly selective, coeducational liberal arts college of about 2400 undergraduate students, located in the Hudson Valley, seventy-five miles north of New York City. Vassar stands upon the homelands of the Munsee Lenape. The College is located in Poughkeepsie, home to a culturally diverse community, and benefits from convenient commuter rail access to New York City. Vassar faculty are committed teachers/scholars who bring research and creative discovery to life for students in classrooms, labs, and studios and in individually-mentored projects. They teach broadly in the curricula of their departments, advise students, and serve on college-wide and departmental committees. The College maintains a generous leave policy, provides strong support for research, and encourages multidisciplinary approaches to teaching.

The teaching load for these full-time visiting faculty positions will be five courses per year, focused on courses at the introductory and intermediate levels, including: single-variable and multivariable calculus, linear algebra, introductory statistics, and probability. An active research program is neither required nor expected as part of these positions. However, Vassar can provide support for full-time faculty for teaching development, research, publication, and conference travel. Candidates must demonstrate a strong commitment to excellence and inclusivity in undergraduate education and must have completed a Ph.D., or have made substantial progress toward completion of the Ph.D., in mathematics or a related field, by the start date.

Two of your reference letters should address your teaching experience. An optional third letter may speak to any aspect of your application.

Review of applicant materials will begin on March 5, 2026, and will continue until the position has been filled. There is no guarantee that applications received after March 5, 2026, will be reviewed.
