University of Liverpool

The School of Electrical Engineering, Electronics and Computer Science

Appointments to various academic grades depending on research experience and vision.

Salary - Various, Closing Date 31st January 2013

The School brings together the disciplines of Computer Science and Electrical and Electronic Engineering. Since the formation of the School, posts have been created to develop new research activities as well as supporting existing core and interdisciplinary activities. There is a need to continue with our investment to strengthen and broaden our research activities in order to take full advantage of the developing research horizon. Therefore, we welcome applications from ambitious academics from all academic grades who would like to make significant contribution to the School and to play a major role in leading and shaping the research direction and who can make a contribution to the existing research excellence.

The School has existing research themes in the following areas: Multi-Agent Systems; Complexity Theory and Algorithms; Logic and Computation; Economics and Computation; Sensors, Diagnostics and Biomedical devices; Information and communications, and Energy Technology. There are also interdisciplinary research themes across the University to which the School is making a contribution (e.g. Computational Biology, Autonomous Systems, molecular electronics, risk and uncertainty, energy etc).

Recruitment is not restricted to existing research themes and candidates within the Computer Science and Electrical and Electronic Engineering research disciplines are welcome and encouraged to apply. The emphasis will be on selecting candidates who can demonstrate their existing research quality and who wish to develop it further and on candidates early on in their careers but who can demonstrate research potential.
