If selected, candidates will be invited to an interview with a Screening and Interviewing Committee.

Selected candidates who are not given an immediate assignment will remain in the pool for four years.

The Mathematics Department offers courses from Statistics and Precalculus through calculus and differential equations, as well as supplementary support services in the Math Tutoring and Computer Lab. Classes are offered during the day and evening at the Santa Rosa and Petaluma campuses. The department services transfer students, associate degree students, vocational students, and general interest students from the community.
