Position Description
McMaster University’s Faculty of Engineering invites applications for five tenure-track positions at the rank of Assistant Professor in the Department of Computing and Software; however, exceptional candidates may be considered at the rank of Associate Professor. The positions will be located on the main university campus to begin on July 1, 2022, or shortly thereafter.
Applicants in all areas of Computer Science and Software Engineering are encouraged to apply. The Department has identified specific needs in Natural Language Processing, theoretical computer science, human-computer interaction (HCI), security, robotics and mechatronics.
The successful applicant must have or be very near completion of a PhD in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related discipline, by the time of the appointment. The applicant must also demonstrate a record of excellence in teaching and research and a willingness and ability to contribute to the department’s collegial and collaborative intellectual community as well as university-wide inclusive excellence goals and priorities. Research excellence will be reflected in successful mentoring of graduate students and particularly doctoral students, extramural grant acquisition and publication in high quality peer-reviewed journals and conferences. The successful applicant will teach both undergraduate and graduate level courses. They will also be expected to foster existing collaborations and initiate news ones within their department and with other departments and faculties.
The Department of Computing and Software is one of the top departments for Computer Science and Software Engineering in Canada. We have 27 faculty members with expertise in computer systems, software engineering, theoretical computer science, security, privacy, machine learning, data analytics, scientific computing, and bioinformatics. The department mentors over 1400 undergraduate students in three programs: computer science, software engineering, and mechatronics engineering. It also mentors more than 120 graduate students in masters and doctoral programs in computer science and software engineering.
McMaster Engineering has a reputation for innovative programs, cutting-edge research, leading faculty, and aspiring students. With over 180 faculty members who mentor approximately 6,000 undergraduate and over 1,000 graduate students, about half of whom are doctoral students, we have earned a strong reputation as a centre for academic excellence and high impact research and innovation. Discover more of what McMaster Engineering and the Hamilton area have to offer academic professionals and their families by reviewing our Information Guide highlighting our research excellence, family-friendly resources and rich local culture. Opportunities for continuous personal and professional growth are also made available through our Faculty’s Fireball Academy and the MacPherson Institute.
