Northeastern University
Khoury College

The Khoury College of Computer Sciences at Northeastern University has multiple faculty positions at all ranks (Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, Full Professor), beginning academic year 2025-26 or 2026-27.  The tenure home for this position will reside in the Khoury College of Computer Sciences, with a potential joint appointment in another Northeastern College, to be determined in consultation with the successful candidate.  Academic rank at the Associate Professor and Full Professor levels will be commensurate with experience and qualifications reflecting a record of demonstrated teaching and scholarly excellence.

This hiring cycle will focus on Artificial Intelligence (AI).  Candidates will be considered across all sub-areas of AI, with an emphasis on Resilient and Trustworthy AI, Foundations of AI, Human-Centered AI, and Use-Inspired AI.  We are especially seeking applications from outstanding senior and mid-career faculty candidates with established research records, but exceptional early-career researchers will also be considered.
