The Department of Computer Science at Tufts University invites applications for multiple tenure-track faculty positions to begin September 2025, as follows.

Human-Computer Interaction (HCI): The department seeks candidates who conduct research in human-computer interaction (HCI), interpreted broadly. We especially seek candidates who publish in venues such as CHI, VIS, UIST, and CSCW. Those who can connect to and build on the department’s and/or university’s strengths in related areas, including visualization, interaction techniques, human-robot interaction, usable security, human-AI interaction, and cognitive science, are strongly encouraged to apply. While candidates at the assistant professor level are preferred, candidates at all levels will also be considered.

Systems: The department seeks candidates who conduct research in computer systems, especially those with interests in networking, operating systems, cloud and mobile systems, databases, security and privacy, and systems for AI/ML. The department’s presence in systems has been quickly growing in recent years, with faculty publications in top venues such as OSDI, ATC, and SoCC. Candidates who can connect to and build on the department’s and/or university’s strengths are particularly encouraged to apply. While candidates at the assistant professor level are preferred, candidates at all levels will also be considered.

Exceptional candidates not matching the above position descriptions will also be considered.

Candidates are encouraged to demonstrate throughout their application their attention to diversity and inclusion as these topics relate to teaching, research, and engagement within the academic environment. We welcome candidates with a variety of life experiences and perspectives that will positively contribute to the Tufts computer science department and broader university community. Women, Black/African Descent, Indigenous/Native American, Hispanic/Latinx, People of Color, LGBTQ+, individuals with disabilities, and others with intersecting marginalized identities are strongly encouraged to apply. The department especially values candidates who have an interest in civic engagement, social impact, and the betterment of society.
