The School of Computing at DePaul University invites applications for multiple tenure-track positions at the level of assistant or associate professor. We are particularly interested in candidates in:

• Cybersecurity,
• Systems,
• HCI,
• AI (including AI applications to healthcare and biomedical engineering)

We also encourage applications from candidates in other core areas of Computer Science. The School of Computing includes over 70 full-time faculty and more than 3,600 undergraduate and graduate students. We offer a PhD program, 12 master’;s degrees, and 10 bachelor’s degrees as well as a growing number of multidisciplinary CS + X degrees. The School of Computing is committed to providing a flexible and supportive environment for its faculty, promoting a rewarding academic career with a balance between teaching and research. Located in the heart of Chicago’s vibrant downtown, it offers vast opportunities to forge relationships with industry, national laboratories, universities, and other organizations in the Chicago area.

The School of Computing has several centers of excellence, including Big Data, Cloud Infrastructure, and High-Performance Computing; Visual Computing, Medical Informatics, and Bioinformatics; Web Intelligence and Recommender Systems; Computing Education; Interactive Machine Learning; Cybersecurity and Adversarial Machine Learning; Computational Geometry and Topology; Next Generation Networks; Rehabilitation Robotics; and Semantics. Over the last
decade, the school faculty have secured more than $13.4M in NSF funding and consistently publish in selective conferences. The culture within the school emphasizes high-impact and high-quality research, rather than placing pressure on faculty to secure external funding or publish many papers. Nonetheless, the university provides extensive support for external funding, as well as a robust internal research grants program, including PhD stipends, graduate assistantships, and course releases.

DePaul draws students of many backgrounds and cultures in a diverse urban setting. We are interested in recruiting and maintaining a diverse faculty. Members of all underrepresented groups, women, veterans, and persons with disabilities are encouraged to apply. DePaul University offers equal employment opportunities to all persons in accordance with applicable federal, state, and local EEO laws. Positions are contingent upon available budgetary resources.

Applicants should have a PhD degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Computer or Electrical Engineering, or a related field. The application must include: a curriculum vitae; a cover letter; at least three letters of recommendation; a research statement, highlighting both current and future directions of research; a teaching statement; and a diversity statement, addressing the candidate’s values, experiences and future plans concerning diversity, equity, and inclusion.
