Tenure-track Faculty Position in Machine Learning at Dartmouth College

The Dartmouth College Department of Computer Science invites applications for two tenure-track faculty positions at the level of assistant professor. We seek candidates who will be excellent researchers and teachers in the areas of: (1) machine learning or security; and (2) theoretical computer science; although outstanding candidates in any area will be considered. We particularly seek candidates who will help lead, initiate, and participate in collaborative research projects both within Computer Science and involving other Dartmouth researchers, including those in other Arts & Sciences departments, Dartmouth’s Geisel School of Medicine, Thayer School of Engineering, and Tuck School of Business. A Ph.D. degree or ABD in Computer Science or a closely related field is required.
The department is home to 20 tenured and tenure-track faculty members and two research faculty members. Research areas of the department encompass the areas of security, computational biology, machine learning, robotics, systems, algorithms, theory, digital arts, vision, and graphics. The Computer Science department is in the School of Arts & Sciences, and it has strong Ph.D. and M.S. programs and outstanding undergraduate majors. The department is affiliated with Dartmouth’s M.D.-Ph.D. program and has strong collaborations with Dartmouth’s other schools. For more information see http://web.cs.dartmouth.edu.
