USC Viterbi School of Engineering - Computer Science: Big Data,
Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning
The Computer Science Department of the USC Viterbi School of Engineering
seeks to hire tenure-track assistant professors. We are interested in
exceptional candidates in all areas of computer science. We are
especially interested in two areas. The first is security. This
includes, but is not limited to, systems security, secure programming
languages, privacy, cryptography, risk assessment, social and ethical
concerns, and security in emerging application areas such as
cyberphysical and cybersocial systems. The second is Big Data,
Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. This includes, but is not
limited to, algorithms, foundations and applications, graphics, natural
language processing, robotics and vision.
Applicants should submit their applications online at:
http://www.cs.usc.edu/about/faculty-jobs/
Applications must include a letter indicating the area of
specialization, detailed curriculum vitae, a statement on current and
future research directions, a teaching statement, and names of at least
three professional references. Evaluation of dossiers will start on
December 15, 2014, but later applications will also be considered.
We are also interested in exceptionally accomplished candidates who can
be transformational faculty members both in computer science and
interdisciplinary computing. Such candidates should contact the
Department Chair, at csch...@usc.edu. Outstanding senior applicants who
have demonstrated academic excellence and leadership, and whose past
activities document a commitment to issues involving the advancement of
women in science and engineering may be also considered for the Lloyd
Armstrong, Jr. Endowed Chair, which is supported by the Women in Science
and Engineering Program endowment.
We expect all candidates to have a strong commitment both to research
and to teaching. All applicants must have earned a doctorate in Computer
Science or a closely related field by the date of appointment.
