IEEE Signal Processing - May 2018 - 8

Professor/Associate Professor/Assistant Professorship in
the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering
The Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering at the Southern
University of Science and Technology (SUSTech) now invites applications for
the faculty position in the Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering.
It is seeking to appoint a number of tenured or tenure track positions in all ranks.
Candidates with research interests in all mainstream fields of electrical and electronic engineering
will be considered, including but not limited to IC Design, Embedded Systems, Internet of Things,
VR/AR, Signal and Information Processing, Control and Robotics, Big Data, AI, Communication/
Networking, Microelectronics, and Photonics. These positions are full time posts. SUSTech adopts
the tenure track system, which offers the recruited faculty members a clearly defined career path.
Candidates should have demonstrated excellence in research and a strong commitment to teaching.
A doctoral degree is required at the time of appointment. Candidates for senior positions must have
an established record of research, and a track-record in securing external funding as PI. As a Statelevel innovative city, it is home to some of China's most successful high-tech companies, such
as Huawei and Tencent. We also emphasize entrepreneurship in our department with good initial
support. Candidates with entrepreneur experience is encouraged to apply as well.

lishing and sharing scientific results is
upon us. I am personally convinced
that the way we vet science today in
our community is not sustainable in
the long term and will need to become
more open again. The online medium
offers opportunities for effective solutions and more openness in science.
So I conclude with an anagram à la
Galileo: letuferomecneicsnissennepoe
carbmesully.
