At DePaul, she became a full professor in 2010,[2] and co-directed a master's program in Middle School Mathematics.[4] She moved again to Wright State as Chair of the Department of Mathematics and Statistics at Wright State in 2015.[2]

In 2017, with Kathleen Madden and Aimee Johnson, Şahin published the textbook Discovering Discrete Dynamical Systems through the Mathematical Association of America.[5] She is also a co-author of Calculus: Single and Multivariable (7th ed., Wiley, 2016), a text whose many other co-authors include Deborah Hughes Hallett, William G. McCallum, and Andrew M. Gleason.
