The Mathematics Department at the University of British Columbia is seeking to nominate at least one woman candidate for an NSERC University Faculty Award in the Fall 2001 competition. A departmental nominee will have a strong research record in a field that fits in with the research interests of the Department, as well as strong teaching qualifications. A successful nominee would assume a tenure-track faculty position at the appropriate rank to begin July 1, 2002, with a reduced teaching load for the duration of the award. The University Faculty Award was created by the Natural Science and Engineering Research Council to encourage Canadian universities to appoint very promising women researchers to tenure-track positions in science and engineering.
