The Computer and Information Science (CIS) Department at the University of
Oregon invites applications for Professor/Department Head. We seek an
outstanding scholar who will be excited to head a computer science
department in a strong public research university. A number of senior
faculty have recently or will soon retire, creating an opportunity for
regeneration through multiple hires over the next several years. The
department is currently developing and implementing a strategic plan for
increased research prominence in the context of a college-wide plan for
excellence.
We seek an individual with strategic vision and leadership abilities. The
ideal candidate will be a prominent scholar with a sustained record of
publication and research funding in an area of software or intelligent
systems that complements existing research strengths of the department.
We are looking for an innovative thinker who is eager to advance
interdisciplinary scholarship, build bridges between academia and
industry, mentor faculty to achieve excellence, teach at the undergraduate
and graduate levels, and communicate the intellectual excitement of
computer science and its broad, evolving role in contemporary society. A
PhD in Computer Science or a closely related field is required.
