The

University of British Columbia

Department of Statistics

, with an anticipated start date of July 1, 2025. The salary range for this position is $120K - $135K, commensurate with qualifications and experience.

This position provides the opportunity, with strong institutional support, to pursue a career based on excellence in teaching and educational leadership, while participating in the intellectually exciting atmosphere of our top-tier department. This career path can make an impact on education both within and beyond the classroom, as well as both within and beyond UBC. Assistant Professor of Teaching is the first rank in UBC’s Educational Leadership Stream, followed by Associate Professor of Teaching (with tenure), and then Professor of Teaching.

The Department of Statistics is a leading international centre for statistical science. UBC’s campuses are located on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territories of the Syilx (Okanagan) Peoples and of the Coast Salish Peoples, including the territories of the xwməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and Stó:lō and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil Waututh) Nations. The department hosts undergraduate programs and courses which continue to grow and evolve rapidly, as well as vibrant graduate programs. Recent initiatives undertaken by the department’s current Educational Leadership faculty, along with their research faculty counterparts, include authoring textbooks, pioneering the use of classroom learning technologies such as Jupyter Notebooks and nbgrader, developing and sharing the use of introductory statistics learning resources via StatSpace, and, in the past, integrating R into WeBWorK via the WeBWorKiR project. Such initiatives position the department as a hub for innovation in statistical and data science education, and evidence-based pedagogy. The department is also home to the Applied Statistics and Data Science Group, which supports research and graduate-level training inside and outside the department. Research faculty in the department excel in theory and methods research, while also being known for collaborative and impactful research with domain-area experts.

A natural outgrowth of our teaching philosophy and our collaborative research is our engagement in UBC’s leading-edge data science initiatives. In 2019, the department launched a new first-year data science course, DSCI 100 and in 2021 collaborated with the Department of Computer Science to launch a Minor in Data Science. This minor built on the earlier success of these two departments collaborating to design and launch a 10-month professional masters program, the

Master of Data Science
- In addition, cross-unit discussions of an upcoming Data Science Major program are well underway. Department faculty are also active members of the

UBC Data Science Institute

, which brings together a critical mass of data science researchers at UBC.
- a cover letter;
- a detailed Curriculum Vitae;

- the names of three references who have been asked to send reference letters (via upload to Academic Jobs Online).
