Two open tenure-track/tenured faculty positions (assistant, associate, or full professor) and one open-rank teaching-track professorship

The Department of Computer Science at Tufts University invites applications for two open tenure-track/tenured faculty positions

  • We are interested in candidates at the Assistant or Associate Professor level with research in Theoretical Computer Science. We are seeking those who conduct research advancing the design and analysis of algorithms, computational complexity, and/or the rigorous experimental study and application of algorithms to other areas within and outside computer science. 
  • We also seek candidates for the Ada Lovelace Professorship, in any area and at any rank. Candidates for this professorship must demonstrate strong leadership potential. Mid-career, new or established Associate Professors or recently promoted Full Professors are preferred. The Lovelace Professorship title is for a 5-year term, after which the candidate will be eligible for other named professorships or will continue with a standard professor appointment.

Exceptional candidates not matching either the Theory or the Lovelace position descriptions will also be considered. 

Please submit your application through Interfolio at https://apply.interfolio.com/112019. Review of applications will begin December 15, 2022 and will continue until the position is filled. Inquiries should be emailed to ttsearch@cs.tufts.edu. 

 

 

The Department of Computer Science at Tufts University also offers an Online teaching-track faculty position starting Spring or Fall 2023

We seek candidates at the rank of Assistant, Associate, or Full Teaching Professor. The primary responsibility for this position will be teaching and curriculum development for the department's Online MS and Post Baccalaureate programs, though the candidate may also, but is not required to, teach in our in-person program. Candidates may have expertise in any area of computer science or a closely related field. They are expected to have strong foundational knowledge in one or more areas of our core curriculum, including Data Structures, Algorithms, Programming Languages, and Computation Theory. This is a full-time, non-tenure-track position. The initial appointment is for two years, with possible renewal contingent on annual performance review results. A doctoral degree is preferred but not required. Please submit your application through Interfolio at https://apply.interfolio.com/111036. Applications are due December 15, 2022, but review of applications will begin November 15, 2022 and continue until the position is filled. Inquiries should be emailed to cssearch@cs.tufts.edu.

 

 

Throughout their application, candidates are encouraged to demonstrate their attention to diversity and inclusion as these topics relate to teaching, research (as applicable), and engagement within the academic environment. Women, African American/Black, Hispanic/Latinx, and Native American/Alaskan Native candidates are welcome and strongly encouraged to apply. The department especially values candidates who have an interest in civic engagement, social impact, and the betterment of society.
