Postdoctoral Fellow Openings

The Department of Statistics and Data Science at Washington University in St. Louis seeks one or more postdoctoral fellows, including the possibility of one William Chauvenet Post-doctoral Lecturer, to engage in both teaching and research beginning in the fall of 2025.

The initial one-year term is renewable for up to two additional academic years with satisfactory performance. The teaching load is normally two courses per year for a postdoc who will be research active under the supervision of a faculty member at the university. Applicants should demonstrate excellence in teaching and show definite promise in research. Special consideration will be given to candidates whose research has significant overlap with that of existing faculty in the department. A PhD in Statistics or a related field is required. Candidates for Postdoctoral Fellow should apply here.

An application should include curriculum vitae, research and teaching statements, and three letters of recommendation, at least one of which addresses teaching ability. All qualified applicants will be automatically considered for the William Chauvenet Post-doctoral Lecturer position, which comes with a discretionary research fund and a two-year term with the potential for the third year.
