tion to have a strong commitment both to research and
to teaching at the undergraduate and graduate levels
while candidates for research track faculty positions
would focus primarily on research.
The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Carnegie Mellon has faculty (both research
and tenure track) openings. Exceptional candidates
in all areas of Electrical and Computer Engineering will
be given serious consideration, but especially those
that broaden the department in emerging areas or that
strengthen existing areas.
The College of Engineering and the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering are both ranked among
the top ten programs in the United States both at the undergraduate and graduate level. The faculty have strong
ties with many multidisciplinary centers and institutes
such as the Institute for Complex Engineered Systems
(graduated NSF ERC), Software Engineering Institute,
Human Computer Interaction Institute, The Robotics
Institute, and the Information Networking Institute. The
department is home to several multidisciplinary centers
and laboratories such as the Data Storage Systems
Center (Graduated NSF ERC), Center for Silicon System Implementation, Microelectromechanical Systems
Laboratory, Distributed Robotics Laboratory, the Parallel Data Laboratory, and the Computer Architecture Lab
at Carnegie Mellon. Faculty in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering also have ties and collaborations with colleagues around the world through a
number of formal research and educational programs.
A moderate teaching load allows time for quality research and close involvement with students and other
faculty. We expect candidates for a tenure track posi-

The department is primarily seeking individuals for faculty positions at the Assistant Professor rank; however,
under unusual circumstances and commensurate with
the qualifications of the individuals, appointments may
be made at the rank of Associate Professor or Professor. Applicants must have earned a doctorate in a related area by the date of appointment.
Applications should include a comprehensive resume, a
list of three to five professional references, a statement of
research and teaching interests (less than 2 pages each),
and copies of two research papers (journal or conference papers). The applicant is responsible for soliciting
the reference letters to be sent directly to the address
below. All applications including letters of reference may
be sent electronically to ed@ece.cmu.edu or to:
