Department/Area: Computer Science
Position Description
The Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) seeks applicants for a position at the tenure-track level in Computer Science, with an expected start date of July 1, 2020.
We are accepting applications in all areas of Computer Science. Machine learning, natural language processing, systems, systems security, and algorithms are areas of special interest, but candidates in any area are invited to apply.
We seek candidates who have a strong research record and a commitment to undergraduate and graduate teaching and training. We particularly encourage applications from historically underrepresented groups, including women and minorities.
Computer Science at Harvard benefits from outstanding undergraduate and graduate students, world-leading faculty, an excellent location, significant industrial collaboration, and substantial support from SEAS.
Information about Harvard’s current faculty, research, and educational programs in computer science is available at http://www.seas.harvard.edu/computer-science.
The associated Institute for Applied Computational Science (http://iacs.seas.harvard.edu) and Data Science Initiative (https://datascience.harvard.edu/) foster connections among computer science, applied math, data science, and various domain sciences at Harvard through its graduate programs and events.
Basic Qualifications
A doctorate or terminal degree in Computer Science or a related field is required by the expected start date.
Additional Qualifications
Special Instructions
Required application documents include a cover letter, CV, a statement of research interests, a teaching statement, and up to three representative papers. In addition, we ask for a statement describing efforts to encourage diversity, inclusion, and belonging, including past, current, and anticipated future contributions in these areas. Candidates are also required to submit the names and contact information for at least three and up to five references, and the application is complete only when three letters have been submitted. At least one letter must come from someone who has not served as the candidate’s undergraduate, graduate, or postdoctoral advisor. We encourage candidates to apply by December 6, 2019, but will continue to review applications until the position is filled.
