Job Opportunity Potential

Assistant/Associate Professor

The Department of Mathematical Sciences (DMS) at the New Jersey Institute of Technology seeks candidates to fill a tenure-track position at the assistant or associate professor level in the areas of statistical data science and machine learning. The appointment is expected to start in Fall 2025.

Candidates should have a Ph.D. in Statistics, Data Science, or related discipline with strong research, funding, and teaching potential. The department is particularly interested in candidates who, in addition to demonstrating research excellence, will be highly effective at teaching data science and statistics courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels. At the university's discretion, the education and experience prerequisites may be exempted where the candidate can demonstrate to the satisfaction of the university, an equivalent combination of education and experience specifically preparing the candidate for success in the position.

The Department of Mathematical Sciences (DMS) at the New Jersey Institute of Technology seeks candidates to fill a tenure-track position at the assistant/associate professor level. Candidates in any area of applied and computational mathematics will be considered, with a preference given to those whose research programs have applications to the physical and life sciences, including materials science, ocean and atmosphere science, active and biological media, fluid dynamics, wave propagation and scattering, and mathematical biology.

Candidates should have a Ph.D. in mathematics, applied mathematics, or a related discipline and strong research and teaching potential for consideration at the assistant professor level. Outstanding candidates with a strong track record of research, funding, and teaching will be considered at the associate professor level. At the university's discretion, the education and experience prerequisites may be exempted where the candidate can demonstrate to the satisfaction of the university, an equivalent combination of education and experience specifically preparing the candidate for success in the position.

Math Adjunct

The Department of Mathematical Sciences (DMS) at the New Jersey Institute of Technology has available part-time adjunct positions, particularly for courses such as Pre-Calculus, Calculus, Differential Equations, and Statistics & Probability. Functions include, but are not limited to, teaching assigned course(s), maintaining student attendance records, and holding regularly scheduled office hours. If assigned to a coordinated course, the Math Adjunct must participate in common exam proctoring and grading.

Math Senior University Lecturer

The Department of Mathematical Sciences (DMS) at the New Jersey Institute of Technology seeks candidates to fill a senior university lecturer position. The primary responsibility, as a Senior University Lecturer, is to teach 12 credits each semester of undergraduate and/or graduate courses in the Department of Mathematical Sciences, particularly for courses in Probability, Statistics, Data Science, and Mathematics as assigned by the Department Chair. Functions include, but are not limited to, teaching assigned course(s), maintaining student attendance records, and holding regularly scheduled office hours. If assigned to a coordinated course, the Math Adjunct must participate in common exam proctoring and grading.

PSW Opportunity

Post-Study Work visa or permit, allowing international students on F-1 visas to work in the US after completing their studies, typically through Optional Practical Training (OPT).

Eligibility:
To be eligible for OPT, students must have been enrolled full-time in a US educational institution for at least one academic year and be seeking work related to their major.

Duration:
Students can apply for up to 12 months of OPT, either before they finish their studies (pre-completion) or after graduation (post-completion).

STEM OPT:
Students in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) fields can apply for an extended OPT period of up to 24 months.

Admission Requirement / Eligibility Criteria

All students who apply to NJIT must submit an official high school transcript in English. When evaluating your application for undergraduate admission, we are interested in understanding how you challenged yourself relative to the curriculum that was available at your school and the trends in your performance—for example, if your grades improved between freshman and senior year.

We also consider the GPA that is indicated on your high school transcript. We look for students in the top 25 percent of their class. For schools that don't use a ranking system, we consider a 3.0 GPA or higher to be equivalent.

Partaking in rigorous curricula, such as Advanced Placement (AP) or International Baccalaureate (IB) classes, can give you an additional advantage. The number of semester credits you will receive will depend on whether you got a 3, 4, or 5 on your AP exams, or a grade of 5, 6, or 7 in IB subject areas. That score also determines which courses you will be excused from taking at NJIT.

Standardized Test Scores

All freshman applicants must take the SAT and/or the ACT, as they provide helpful standardized context for your application compared to our overall applicant pool. However, be assured that test scores are only one part of our application review.

Effective as of January 2017, NJIT will accept the redesigned SAT scores for admission and scholarship purposes. Applicants may submit scores from either the old or new SAT.

Average composite SAT score for our enrolling freshmen is 1285 (2 part - Math and Critical Reading).

Average ACT score for our enrolling freshmen is 26.

Submitting Scores

We will consider either the new or old SAT or ACT and use the highest scores provided, even if they are not from your most recent testing. You may self-report standardized test scores on your application as a temporary placeholder for official scores, allowing us to get a head start on a review of your file.

We recommend you send us all of your official scores as soon as possible, or no later than the time you test, to avoid missing a deadline.
