Our existing faculty in Computer Science are involved in the forefront of research in knowledge and data engineering (such as data mining, database systems, pattern recognition, and knowledge-based systems), software engineering and verification (including programming languages), and computational sciences (including computational biology, discrete modeling, and numerical methods). We are seeking to complement and further strengthen our existing research and teaching activities in these areas. Candidates in these areas are most sought, and candidates in any other area of computer science will also be considered seriously. Candidates should have a distinguished research record, hold a doctorate in Computer Science or a closely related field, and have broad teaching abilities and interests. The successful applicant is expected to (1) play a major role in departmental research initiatives and the graduate program coordination, (2) strengthen and build interdisciplinary bridges between the Department of Computer Science and other departments within the University, and (3) take an active role in teaching computer science courses.
