The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at
Carnegie Mellon has Research Track Faculty Openings.
Exceptional candidates in all areas of Electrical and
Computer Engineering will be given serious consideration.

The College of Engineering and the Department of Electrical
and Computer Engineering are both ranked among the top
programs in the United States both at the undergraduate
and graduate level. The faculty has 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, SRC Smart Grid Research Center, the
Parallel Data Laboratory, and the Computer Architecture Lab
at Carnegie Mellon. Faculty members 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. The
department has extensive experimental and computing infrastructure. The department currently maintains state of the art
nanofabrication facilities and will be significantly expanding
these in both capability and scale within the next few years.
Research track faculty members are not required to teach
and may therefore focus exclusively on developing their
leadership within their area of research, developing research
collaborations and supervising PhD students. Occasionally,
research track faculty members may teach if they and the
department feel this would advance their programs. We
expect candidates for a research track position to have a

strong commitment to research. The department is primarily
seeking individuals for faculty positions at the Assistant
Research Professor rank. 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 interests (less than 2 pages), 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 application materials
including letters of reference may be sent electronically to
ed@ece.cmu.edu or to:
T.E. (Ed) Schlesinger
Department Head and
Schramm Professor
Electrical and Computer Engineering
Hamerschlag Hall
Carnegie Mellon University
Pittsburgh, PA 15213-3890

Evaluation of applications will begin immediately and continue throughout the academic year until available positions
are filled. Candidates are encouraged to apply early. Carnegie
Mellon is building a culturally diverse faculty and encourages applications from female and minority candidates.
Carnegie Mellon is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
