Description:

 

The Department of Computer Science in the Faculty of Arts & Science at the University of Toronto invites applications for a full-time tenure stream position in the area of computer science. The appointment will be at the rank of Associate Professor or Professor with an anticipated start date of July 1, 2024, or shortly thereafter.

 

Candidates must have earned a PhD degree in Computer Science or a related area with a clearly demonstrated record of excellence in research and teaching. We seek candidates whose research and teaching interests complement and enhance our existing departmental strengths. The University of Toronto is an international leader in Computer Science research and education. Candidates will have an established international reputation and will be expected to sustain and lead innovative and independent research, to maintain an outstanding, competitive, and externally funded research program, to contribute to the enrichment of both undergraduate and graduate programs in the department; and to participate in service and leadership within the academic community.

 

Candidates must provide evidence of excellence in research which can be demonstrated by a record of sustained high-impact contributions and publications in top-ranked and field relevant journals, the submitted research statement, presentations at significant conferences, awards and accolades, and other noteworthy activities that contribute to the visibility and prominence of the discipline, as well as strong endorsements by referees of top international stature.

 

Candidates will also be expected to demonstrate evidence of excellence in teaching at the undergraduate and graduate levels through teaching accomplishments, the teaching dossier submitted as part of the application (with required materials outlined below), as well as strong letters of reference. Professional or lived experiences that enhance the ability to teach a diverse student body are highly valued.

 

Candidates are also expected to show evidence of a commitment to equity, diversity, inclusion, and the promotion of a respectful and collegial learning and working environment demonstrated through the application materials.

 

Salary will be commensurate with qualifications and experience, and is competitive with our North American peers.

 

Application materials for the position must be submitted online through AcademicJobsOnline at https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/26344 . The required materials are the candidate's current curriculum vitae, list of publications, research statement outlining current and future research interests, a teaching dossier that includes a teaching statement, sample course materials and teaching evaluations, statement of contributions to equity and diversity, and three to five (3–5) recent reference letters (on letterhead, signed, dated and scanned) uploaded to AcademicJobsOnline directly by the writers.

 

Equity and diversity are essential to academic excellence. We seek candidates who value diversity and whose research, teaching and service bear out our commitment to equity. Candidates are therefore also asked to submit a 1–2 page statement of contributions to equity and diversity, which might cover topics such as (but not limited to): research or teaching that incorporates a focus on underrepresented communities, the development of inclusive pedagogies, or the mentoring of students from underrepresented groups.

 

The University of Toronto offers the opportunity to teach, conduct research, and live in one of the most diverse metropolitan areas in the world.
