The Cornell University
Department of Computer Science (CS) in the Cornell Bowers CIS College of
Computing and Information Science invites
applications for a full-time and long-term Lecturer position at
Cornell’s Ithaca campus. Cornell University is located in Ithaca, New
York, with a county population of about 100,000 people in the heart of the
Finger Lakes region. Both Cornell and Ithaca offer a wide range of cultural
activities, sports, and outdoor activities with the pleasures of both city and
country close at hand. This
non-tenure track faculty position offers a professional teaching career track
with possibility for growth. Appointments are typically three year
(Lecturer) or five year (Senior Lecturer) with the expectation of renewal, based
on candidate’s qualifications and experience. Candidates for the position should hold a PhD in any computing-related field and have demonstrated commitment to
teaching excellence and innovation. We are seeking candidates who can
contribute to large lower- and upper-level undergraduate and master’s level
courses across a range of computer science subfields. A typical full-time (100%)
effort load for a Lecturer in Computer Science is two courses per semester, as
well as collaborative engagement in the further development of Cornell’s
educational mission. The department offers a competitive salary and benefits
package, and lecturers play a full and active part in departmental life, from
curriculum design and innovation to participation in wider faculty governance
and decision-making. Fostering an inclusive
environment is a core value of the Computer Science Department and Cornell as a
whole. In line with Cornell’s historical commitment to educating “ … any person … in any study…”, we seek candidates who will create a climate that is
inclusive of all students, including students from historically
underrepresented groups, and students who have overcome personal challenges.
