The Department of Computer Science in the Physical Sciences Division at the University of Chicago invites applications for tenure-track faculty positions at the rank of Assistant Professor. The search is open with respect to subfield, but we encourage applications from investigators working in Computer Systems, Quantum Computing, Robotics, Theoretical Computer Science and Visual Computing.
Members of the faculty are expected to lead research programs that will produce significant contributions to a field, and teach and mentor at the undergraduate and graduate levels.
The Department of Computer Science (cs.uchicago.edu) is the hub of a large, diverse community of researchers focused on advancing the foundations of computing and driving its most advanced applications. The larger computer science community at the University of Chicago includes the Data Science Institute (jointly run by the departments of computer science and statistics), the Toyota Technological Institute at Chicago (TTIC), the Polsky Center for Entrepreneurship and Innovation, and Argonne National Laboratory. We encourage connections with researchers across the university in such areas as bioinformatics, data science, mathematics, molecular engineering, linguistics, statistics, public policy, and social science, among others: the University's culture is highly collaborative.
The University of Chicago is in the midst of an ambitious, multi-year effort to significantly expand its computing and data science activities. The Department of Computer Science is housed in a newly-designed, state-of-the-art building that encourages collaboration, experimentation and interaction.
All University departments and institutes are charged with building a faculty from a diversity of backgrounds and with diverse viewpoints; with cultivating an inclusive community that values freedom of expression; and with welcoming and supporting all their members.
