for several full-time faculty positions.
We are looking for energetic, highly qualified academics who, apart from
developing their own research programs, will strengthen some of the
existing research areas within the School, or build bridges between them or
with industry. Of particular interest are candidates in the areas of
software engineering, data analytics, computer security and systems,
broadly construed, but exceptionally qualified candidates from all areas of
computer science are welcomed encouraged to apply.
Description
Candidates are expected to have a proven international research record and
will be expected to play a full part in the teaching and administrative
activities of the School. The applicants are expected to teach courses at
both graduate and undergraduate level. It is preferred that applicants have
a demonstrated history of excellence in teaching at the graduate and
undergraduate levels. A PhD in computer science or closely related field is
required.
Salary and rank are commensurate with experience. The positions are open
until filled, with the earliest available starting date of August 2016, but
later starting dates can be negotiated.
The review of the applications will begin on March 15th and continue until
the positions are filled. Application letters should be submitted through
the University's online application submission system (
http://radningar.hr.is/storf/default.aspx?langid=en).
- a cover letter
- a CV with a list of publications,
- a research statement,
- copies of three to five major publications,
- a teaching statement,
- supporting material regarding excellence in teaching, and
- any other relevant information the applicant wishes to supply.
Please arrange to have at least three letters of recommendation sent
directly to mannaudur@ru.is (subject "Faculty Positions in CS") with a cc
to the Dean of the School of Computer Science, Prof. Yngvi Björnsson (
yngvi@ru.is). Informal communication and discussions on any aspect related
to the positions are encouraged, and interested candidates are welcome to
contact the chairman of the search committee, Prof. Magnus M. Halldorsson (
mmh@ru.is), for further information.
The School of Computer Science at Reykjavik University has about 800
students and 18 permanent faculty members. The school offers undergraduate
and graduate programs in computer science and software engineering, as well
as a combined-degree undergraduate program in discrete mathematics and
computer science. The doctoral program within the School received its
ministerial accreditation in 2009. Quoting from the accreditation report on
PhD studies from 2009 (http://www.ru.is/media/td/SCS_accreditation.pdf):
The School of Computer Science is "the strongest in Iceland" (p. 6) and its
research is "on a similar level to that of cutting-edge institutions
worldwide" (p. 15).
