Tenure-track Position at Iowa State University http://www.cs.iastate.edu/

The Department of Computer Science has one tenure-track faculty position
open for Fall 2005. We are especially interested in hiring an
experimentalist at the assistant professor level in Software
Engineering, Networks and Systems. The position requires a Ph.D. in
Computer Science or a closely related field and outstanding potential
for research in computer science and promise of effective teaching at
undergraduate through graduate levels. Candidates who are in the final
stages of obtaining a Ph.D. will also be considered.

The department currently consists of 26 full-time tenure-track faculty
and offers B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in Computer Science. It also
participates in interdepartmental graduate programs in Bioinformatics
and Computational Biology, Computational Intelligence, Learning and
Discovery, Human-Computer Interactions, and Information Assurance. The
department has about 500 undergraduates, 40 M.S. students and 100 Ph.D.
students. Almost all graduate students are supported either as RA or TA.
The department has strong research and educational programs in
Algorithms and Complexity, Artificial Intelligence, Bioinformatics and
Computational Biology, Databases, Data Mining, Parallel and Distributed
Computing, Information Assurance, Programming Languages, Multimedia
Systems, Operating Systems and Networks, and Software Engineering.

A dynamic faculty, moderate teaching load (typically 3 courses per year
for active researchers with further reductions for junior faculty),
strong graduate program, and well-funded research program provide an
excellent academic environment. In addition, cutting-edge research and
education are nurtured through interdisciplinary interactions
facilitated by the Laurence H. Baker Center for Bioinformatics and
Biological Statistics, the Information Assurance Center, DOE Ames
Laboratory, and the Virtual Reality Application Center.

Iowa State University is a major land-grant university located in Ames,
