University of Denver
Department of Computer Science
We invite applications for at least one tenure-track faculty position (assistant or associate professor levels) to begin Fall 2007. The minimum requirements are a Ph.D. in CS or a related area by the time the appointment begins and demonstrated ability in research and teaching. The department is particularly interested in a candidate who can teach and direct research in the following areas: software engineering; entertainment computing, interactive simulations and games; trustworthy computing (networks, security, privacy, fault tolerance); and spatial and geometric data management. Outstanding candidates in other areas of Computer Science will be considered as well. The successful candidate is expected to participate fully in the department through an active research program, excellent teaching, and dedicated service.
The Computer Science Department is part of the new School of Engineering and Computer Science (SECS) at the University of Denver. SECS promotes research and teaching collaborations among different disciplines. Faculty in Computer Science have unique opportunities for cross-disciplinary collaboration. For further information, visit the SECS website at http://www.du.edu/secs/.
Our current faculty’s research interests include algorithms, computational geometry, computer security, database systems, distributed systems and algorithms, graphics, multimedia systems, performance modeling, software engineering, and symbolic computation and computer algebra. We offer bachelor's, master's and doctoral degrees.
The University of Denver is a medium-size (10,000 students) private university. Class sizes are small, the teaching load is moderate and the salary is competitive. The University is located in an attractive residential area 5 miles from downtown Denver. Denver, with its metro area population of 2.3 million, is consistently ranked as one of the country’s top five most pleasant places to live. Many of the country's best ski areas, mountain bike trails, and the 14,000 foot peaks of the Colorado Rockies are only one or two hours away.
The University of Denver is committed to enhancing the diversity of its faculty and staff and encourages applications particularly from women, minorities and the disabled.
Application screening will begin immediately and continue until the position is filled. Applicants should submit a curriculum vitae, a statement of teaching and research interests and have at least 3 reference letters sent to:
