Statistics Faculty / Data Analytics Program Specialist Position @ Ohio State University

The Department of Statistics in the College of Arts and Sciences at The Ohio State University invites applications for an Open Rank Faculty / Data Analytics Program Specialist position to begin in the autumn semester of 2016. 

The focus of this non-tenure-track faculty position is the enhancement of student learning in the university’s new undergraduate Data Analytics major (http://data-analytics.osu.edu) through teaching and program support and development. We seek individuals who are committed to excellence in undergraduate teaching and education and have interests and expertise in areas of statistics related to data analytics.

This faculty position—which has been designed to allow a motivated individual to impact undergraduate education both inside and outside of the classroom—is a hybrid position that consists of a 45% appointment as a non-tenure-track faculty member and a 55% appointment as a data analytics program specialist. The faculty portion of the appointment entails teaching three to four undergraduate statistics courses per year (nine contact credit hours). The program specialist portion of the appointment entails, in conjunction with other statistics faculty, coordination and development of the major program.

For appointment at the associate or full level, applicants should have demonstrated ability for leadership in the practice of data analytics and in statistical pedagogy and academic program development at the undergraduate level.
