University of Nottingham - School of Computer Science
Salary will be within the Professorial range, minimum £55,908 per annum
depending on skills and experience.
This is an exciting opportunity to play a key role in the £13m LANCS
initiative which brings together four British universities - Cardiff,
Lancaster, Nottingham and Southampton Universities - to develop
world-leading research and teaching in the field of Operational Research
(OR).
The LANCS initiative, supported by a Science and Innovation Award from
the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council UK (EPSRC), will
bring about a significant expansion of the national research base in OR
and will build significant new research capacity to ensure that UK
industry competes effectively in the global market.
An outstanding candidate is required to drive forward Nottingham's
contribution to the LANCS initiative working in the Automated Scheduling
Planning and Optimisation (ASAP) Research Group. The successful
candidate will play a key role in the consortium and will be expected to
lead the initiative's international scientific outreach and industrial
co-ordination programmes.
After the completion of the grant the successful applicant will continue
this leadership role at the interface between Operational Research and
Computer Science.
Candidates should have a proven record of publications in high quality
international academic journals. A history of successful winning of
significant research funding is also essential.
The successful candidate will be expected to undertake a research
leadership role, both within the School and also as part of major
University-wide initiatives. The candidate will also contribute to the
development of teaching and learning within the School.
