About The Position

The University of Nevada, Las Vegas invites applications for a full-time, non-tenure-track (NTT), Assistant Professor-in-Residence of Mathematics in the Honors College. At UNLV, the “in-Residence” label refers to teaching positions with a service component but no research requirement. The Honors College seeks candidates whose teaching and service have prepared them to enhance our commitment to student development in higher education.

The majority of Honors College courses are in person, although there are online and hybrid courses offered.
