The Department of Mathematics and Computer Science at Wesleyan University
invites applications for a tenure track assistant professorship in Computer
Science to begin in Fall 2018. Candidates must have a Ph.D. in Computer
Science or similar discipline in hand by the time of appointment. A
successful candidate may be hired as an Instructor if the candidate does not
have a Ph.D. in hand at the time of appointment, but will complete the Ph.D.
in Computer Science or similar discipline within one year of hire. Candidates
must have a strong research record and experience in teaching. Theory,
programming languages, algorithms, network science, and networking are
well-represented in the department. We encourage candidates in all areas of
Computer Science to apply, including those who deepen our existing research
strengths, and especially encourage candidates who can contribute to the
diversity (broadly conceived) of the department.
Duties include conducting an independent program of research, teaching,
advising and mentoring students, and participating in faculty governance
at the departmental and university level. Tenure track faculty in
Computer Science at Wesleyan have a 2/1 teaching load (three courses per
year). Wesleyan values both research and teaching highly and has a
strong and diverse student body.
Applications must be submitted online at
https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/9599. We will begin reviewing
applications on Dec. 1, 2017.
Applications must include a cover letter, curriculum vitae, research
statement, and teaching statement. Applicants must also have four letters of
recommendation, one of which discusses teaching, submitted by the recommenders
at the AcademicJobsOnline.org website. As part of your teaching statement or
cover letter we invite you to describe your cultural competencies and
experiences engaging a diverse student body.
