University of Minnesota CSE Department Invites Applications for Faculty Positions in CPS, Cyber Security, and Embedded Systems

The Department of Computer Science and Engineering at the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities invites applications for multiple tenure-track faculty positions in cyber security and in support of a University-wide initiative (MnDRIVE) on robotics, sensors, and advanced manufacturing (http://cse.umn.edu/r/mndrive-minnesota-discovery-research-and-innovation-economy/). Specific topics of interest for the positions include cyber security, sensing and networking, machine learning, computer vision, robot design, manipulation, mobility, human-robot interaction, planning, algorithmic foundations, CPS and embedded systems. Applicants from other areas will be considered as long as they address how their work fits into the security or MnDRIVE themes. Senior applicants will also be considered. We encourage applications from women and under-represented minorities. Candidates should have a Ph.D. in Computer Science or a closely related discipline at the time of appointment.

The Department has an outstanding faculty of over forty members, including 9 IEEE Fellows, 2 ACM Fellows, over 20 NSF CAREER Award recipients, and multiple PECASE winners, with specialties across the broad spectrum of computing. Research funding has increased significantly, with over $35 million awarded in the past two years, including large awards such as NSF Expeditions in Computing. Faculty research productivities and impact are high, with recent Top 10 rankings from The Chronicles of Higher Education and Science Watch.

The positions are open until filled, but for full consideration apply at https://www.cs.umn.edu/resources/employment/faculty by December 15, 2015. The University of Minnesota is an equal opportunity employer and educator. Any questions related to the openings can be referred to Professor David Du, Chair of Faculty Recruiting Committee, at du@cs.umn.edu or 612-3858781.
