The Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics at Temple University College of Public Health (Philadelphia, PA) is hiring a non-tenure track instructional faculty member in biostatistics, and we invite applications for an enthusiastic instructor to teach undergraduate and graduate courses in biostatistics starting August 19, 2024.
We seek collegial faculty with an earned doctorate in biostatistics or a related discipline. Because the department offers courses for students in multiple disciplines (e.g., nursing, kinesiology), successful candidates should be skilled in teaching quantitative courses to students with a range of aptitudes and using a variety of statistical software (e.g. SAS, R). Online teaching experience is highly desirable. We value diversity and seek individuals committed to inclusive practices in education. Rank is at the assistant professor level.
Instructional faculty teach a combination of in-person and online courses. While Temple University offers excellent professional development in teaching, this position also provides collaborative research opportunities. Namely, instructors may also participate in the department’s Biostatistics Core, which offers comprehensive biostatistical consultation and computational services to researchers in the College of Public Health, throughout Temple University, and at other institutions. Salary and benefits are competitive and commensurate with credentials and experience.
Additional details about the position, the department, and Temple University can be found here.
Applicants should email a cover letter detailing their interest; curriculum vitae; a statement of teaching philosophy with specific attention to diversity, equity and inclusion; and the names and contact information of three to five references to epibio@temple.edu. Application review is ongoing and will continue until the position is filled.
Contact Dr. Recai Yucel, assistant director of biostatistics, at recai.yucel@temple.edu with questions or to make nominations.
