The holder of the Eberly Professorship will provide academic leadership in the department's applied mathematics program. The successful candidate must have outstanding scholarly accomplishments in applied mathematics, a record of funded research and a commitment to excellence in teaching. The department has made several junior level appointments in applied mathematics in recent years. Our research areas are in applied analysis, approximation theory, continuum mechanics, discrete mathematics, multi-phase flow, numerical analysis, and perturbation methods. WVU is located in Morgantown. It takes approximately 80 minutes to drive north to Pittsburgh and three and a half hours to drive east to Washington DC. The Morgantown area has a population of around 50,000 and the University has around 19,000 students. The surrounding countryside is beautiful and offers a great deal all year round. There are many hiking routes and skiing opportunities within 20 minutes of town. The area is relatively inexpensive and the selection of houses available is varied. A typical three bedroom house costs in the region of $80,000. Annual property taxes on such a house would be about $300. There are few traffic problems in town. Applications, nominations, or requests for information should be directed to: Dr Alphonse Baartmans Department of Mathematics West Virginia University Morgantown, WV 26506 Enquiries by electronic mail can be sent to: na.christie@score.stanford.edu vm0acb@wvnvm.bitnet The deadline for applications and nominations is January 15, 1988. The position will be available August 16, 1988. Candidates should submit a letter of application, a current vita and the names and addresses of five references. WVU is an Affirmative Action/Equal Opportunity employer. ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 31 Dec 87 10:54:56 PST From: golub@Bravery.stanford.edu (Gene Golub) To: NA@score.stanford.edu Subject: NEW PROGRAM: SCIENTIFIC COMPUTING & COMPUTATIONAL MATH NEW PROGRAM at STANFORD SCIENTIFIC COMPUTING and COMPUTATIONAL MATHEMATICS A graduate program for highly qualified students in those areas of applied mathematics, numerical analysis, and computer science that concern the analysis and simulation of physical systems. PhD and MS programs are offered. This program focuses upon the structures of problem formulation, algorithm formulation, computing environments and their relationships. Programs of study are based upon a core curriculum of courses in applied mathematics, numerical analysis and computer science and a unified depth sequence in an area of physical science or engineering.
