A brief description: The Department of Mathematics and Department of Statistics
at the University of California, Los Angeles invite applications for a
three-year position as an Assistant Adjunct Professor in Social Justice and
Data Science.

This Social-Justice Data-Science (SJDS) scholar position, which will be
appointed in either the Mathematics or Statistics department, is based on a
dual-mentor system whereby the scholar has a mentor in either Mathematics or
Statistics and a second mentor who is a social-justice scholar from another
campus unit (see https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__datatheory.ucla.edu_social-5Fjustice.html&d=DwIBAg&c=sJ6xIWYx-zLMB3EPkvcnVg&r=yQQsvTNAnbvDXGM4nDrXAje4pr0qHX2qIOcCQtJ5k3w&m=eKNYagrtbXIPjvmGrDcWX_9mKotUhXSRMZ3hepLtzN0&s=e7_WsTpAYBQUDDdc_RlPUxPA8CKhYvWriUI5ZyFWZs8&e= ). The SJDS
scholar will address social-justice questions via empirical research or
analysis, with a preference for the study of inequity and disparities in the
Los Angeles region. This position is open to scholars from all disciplines (but
who possess or will possess a Ph.D. that is grounded in data science by the
time of appointment). Applicants should also show evidence of excellence in
teaching and research.

The expected teaching load for this position is four one-quarter courses per
year. This is expected to include both mathematics and/or statistics courses
from the existing curriculum and also courses related to SJDS and in the
candidates field of expertise.
