TLTE is recognized across UNL for distinguished teaching, strong collaborations with exceptional partner schools and has a reputation for scholarship that embraces diverse research methodologies. The candidate who fills this position will teach and advise undergraduate and graduate students in mathematics education. TLTE seeks a colleague who possess the understanding, commitment, and ability to contribute collaboratively to robust elementary and secondary education programs and mathematics education in the context of continuing demographic change in the state and nation.

The College of Education and Human Sciences strives to be a vibrant, welcoming, and caring community driven by our mission to enhance the lives of individuals, families, schools, and communities, and strengthening the relationships among them. At the University of Nebraska, we strive for excellence in all that we do. True excellence requires that every individual is able to work and learn in an atmosphere of respect, dignity, and acceptance.

Our commitment requires each of us to continuously ensure our interactions be respectful, protect free speech, and inspire academic freedom.
