Director and Full Professor – Simons Institute for the Theory of Computing
The University of California, Berkeley invites applications for Director of the Simons Institute for the Theory of Computing, reporting to the Vice Chancellor for Research. The successful applicant will also be appointed to a tenured full professorship on campus. Upon completion of their tenure as Institute Director, which is for an initial period of five years with the possibility of renewal, the position will revert to that of a regular professor. The candidate’s designated home department is open, but should be in a field closely related to the theory of computing. We seek a visionary leader who will identify important theoretical topics, oversee the Institute’s staffing and operations, lead the Institute’s fundraising efforts, and connect with the international theoretical computer science community to attract leaders and participants for its programs. All qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, age, or protected veteran status.
