Tenure Track Faculty Positions
Starting August 2004
Do you want the combination of a research university teaching load with a liberal arts college environment? Do you like engaging undergraduates together with graduates in long-term, open-ended projects? Would you enjoy doing interdisciplinary research, experiencing the interplay between technology and society, and helping students apply their technical skills in global settings?
If so, you should consider joining the faculty at WPI!
WPI is an elite national university with an enrollment of 3,700, including 1000 graduate students. It has a core focus on engineering, science and the management of technology, and grants degrees in more than 30 disciplines. WPI's acclaimed and long-standing project-based undergraduate curriculum is singled out by professional societies as a model program. That curriculum, combined with a significant graduate program, offers faculty a unique balance between research and teaching.
The WPI Computer Science Department is recruiting tenure-track faculty at the Assistant or Associate Professor levels for the Fall of 2004. Our current search priorities are in Software Engineering or areas closely related to Software Construction (such as Programming Languages and Formal Methods). However, outstanding candidates at any rank and in any area will get full consideration. Candidates should have a PhD in Computer Science or a closely related field, and the potential for excellence in research and teaching.
The department grants BS, MS, and PhD degrees in Computer Science, and is among the largest at WPI (with more than 600 majors and roughly 100 full-time MS and PhD students). Faculty research is funded by federal agencies (such as NSF, NIH, NSA, ONR, and DARPA) and industrial collaborators.
The department currently has 19 tenure-track faculty. We expect a steady increase in faculty size over the coming years and hope to maintain the exceptionally close-knit, collegial atmosphere we currently enjoy. Please refer to our web site at http://www.cs.wpi.edu/ for complete information.
WPI is in Worcester, Massachusetts, the second largest city in Massachusetts and the third largest in New England. It is approximately one hour from both Boston and Providence; cultural and recreational resources abound in the region. The UMASS medical center and large number of technology companies, colleges and universities in the immediate area make it ideal for dual career families.
To apply, submit a letter of application, which includes detailed Research and Teaching Statements, vitae, and the names, postal addresses and email addresses of at least three references to:
