Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science
Faculty Opening: PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES AND COMPILERS AT ALL PROFESSORIAL RANKS

The Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at Northwestern University invites applications for a tenure track faculty position in programming languages and compilers, broadly construed. Candidates at all levels will be considered. An earned Ph.D. in Computer Science, Computer Engineering, or a related field is required, as is demonstrated success within programming languages and compilers. We are particularly interested in candidates who bridge this area and computer architecture, systems, high performance computing, software engineering, hardware synthesis, or computer security. Successful candidates will be expected to carry out world class research, collaborate with other faculty, and teach effectively at the undergraduate and graduate levels. Compensation and start-up packages are negotiable and will be competitive.

Northwestern EECS consists of over 50 faculty members of national prominence whose interests span a wide range. Four junior faculty members received CAREER awards last year. The Computer Engineering and Systems division, with 18 faculty members, and the Computing, Algorithms, and Applications division, with 8 members, are likely to provide a particularly stimulating collaborative environment for successful candidates. Northwestern University is located in the Chicago area.

Applicants should send a curriculum vitae, statements of research and teaching interests, three representative papers, and the names of at least three references for junior applicants and five for senior applicants, by email to
