Professor of Computer Science [All Levels - Database, Security focus]
Northwestern University has announced a substantial commitment to grow and transform Computer Science (CS) [http://www.northwestern.edu/newscenter/stories/2016/06/major-expansion-in-computer-science.html]. We are adding twenty new tenure-track faculty in the next five years—ten in core Computer Science, and ten collaboratively with other disciplines (CS + X)—as well as a number of non-tenure track teaching faculty. We seek outstanding candidates with a clear passion to make a difference in Computer Science and who are excited by the opportunity to help build the future of CS at a great University.
We invite candidates to apply for new positions as Professor of Computer Science at the Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor level. We are particularly interested in recruiting individuals to our database and security faculty teams, but are open to applications from outstanding faculty in all areas of Computer Science. Priority will be given to applicants with path-breaking research interests that have the potential to transform both Computer Science and other disciplines. We intend to hire 2 or more excellent candidates, and are open to cluster hires and teams.
Northwestern is a world-leading research and teaching university with an unrivaled combination of excellent schools that provide extraordinary opportunities for collaboration across a wide range of disciplines. Located just outside of Chicago – a diverse and culturally vibrant world-class city – Northwestern faculty have ample opportunities to connect with the city’s growing technology sector.
We encourage candidates to send applications as soon as possible. Applications received by December 15, 2017 will be given full consideration. However, the positions will remain open until filled. Applicants should submit (1) a cover letter indicating rank applied for, (2) a curriculum vitae, (3) three to five references (4) statements of research and teaching interests, and (5) two representative publications.
