The Department of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of Regina invites applications for a tenure-track Assistant
Professor in Pure Mathematics, starting July 1, 2025. This position is specifically designated for candidates who selfidentify
as women, aiming to address gender inequity and under-representation in the field of Mathematics. The
research field is open, but preference will be given to candidates whose research complements existing research
strengths in our department.
The successful candidate will join a collaborative and inclusive department with 23 faculty members. We pride ourselves
on our supportive and collegial atmosphere, and our commitment to creating a lively and engaging academic
community. We are a full member of the Pacific Institute for the Mathematical Sciences and an affiliate member of the
Fields Institute.

Teaching: The candidate must demonstrate a commitment to teaching excellence and be able to teach both core
mathematics courses in our undergraduate programs and graduate-level classes in their research areas.
Service: The candidate must have a commitment to academic service, both within the Department and University, and
