Position Details


The University of Washington's Department of Computer Science & Engineering has one or more open positions in a wide variety of technical areas in both Computer Science and Computer Engineering, and at all professional levels. A moderate teaching load allows time for quality research and close involvement with students.  Our space in the Paul G. Allen Center for Computer Science & Engineering provides opportunities for new projects and initiatives. The Seattle area is particularly attractive given the presence of significant industrial research laboratories as well as a vibrant technology- driven entrepreneurial community that further enhances the intellectual atmosphere.  Information about the department can be found on the web at http://www.cs.washington.edu.

We welcome applicants in all research areas in Computer Science and Computer Engineering including both core and inter-disciplinary areas.  Areas of interest include (but are not limited to) security, machine learning, theory, and systems.  We expect candidates to have a strong commitment both to research and to teaching. The department is primarily seeking individuals at the tenure-track Assistant Professor rank; however, under unusual circumstances and commensurate with the qualifications of the individual, appointments may be made at the rank of Associate Professor or Professor.  We may also be seeking non-tenured research faculty at Assistant, Associate and Professor levels, postdoctoral researchers (Research Associates) and part-time and full-time annual lecturers and Sr. Lecturers.  Applicants for both tenure-track and research positions must have earned a doctorate by the date of appointment; those applying for lecturer positions must have earned at least a Master's degree.   Research Associates, Lecturers and Sr. Lecturers will be hired on an annual or multi-annual appointment.  All University of Washington faculty engage in teaching, research and service.

Please apply online at http://www.cs.washington.edu/news/jobs.html with a letter of application, a complete curriculum vitae, statement of research and teaching interests, and the names of four references.  Applications received by February 1, 2009 will be given priority consideration.  Open positions are contingent on funding.

The University of Washington was awarded an Alfred P. Sloan Award for Faculty Career Flexibility in 2006.  In addition, the University of Washington is a recipient of a National Science Foundation ADVANCE Institutional Transformation Award to increase the participation of women in academic science and engineering careers.  We are building a culturally diverse faculty and encourage applications from women and minority candidates.  The University of Washington is an affirmative action, equal opportunity employer.
