Senior lecturer in Mathematics
At the department of Mathematical Sciences there are many internationally successful researchers in a wide variety of research areas. The division Analysis and Probability Theory conducts research in areas such as harmonic analysis and partial differential equations, mathematical physics, probability and discrete mathematics and functional analysis. We invite applications for a senior lecture position at the division of Analysis and probability theory.
Applications which are compatible with the research conducted within the two research groups Mathematical physics and Harmonic analysis and functional analysis at the division of Analysis and probaility theory will be considered. More information about these two research groups is available at
https://www.chalmers.se/en/departments/math/research/research-groups/mathematical-physics/Pages/default.aspx
and

Major responsibilities
As senior lecturer you will be course responsible, which involves planning and performing teaching at all levels. You are also in particular expected to take part in the work of developing new teaching methodologies, for example through the application of new technologies. The position includes supervision of students' independent work, in paricular acting as an assistant or main supervisor for PhD students, depending on your current competence. There will also be a certain amount of departmental committee work.
You are expected to conduct independent research and engage in activities for attracting external funding. All research and teaching staff at the Department are expected to take part in various outreach activities towards the civil society.
