The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) at The University of Arizona
invites applications for multiple tenured or tenure-track faculty appointments at the Assistant,
Associate, and Full Professor ranks. We expect to hire at least six faculty members during the
calendar year 2015.
The ECE Department is currently building a Research Center on "Cognitive Sensing, Processing,
and Security" and the anticipated hiring will be related to this theme. We seek candidates with
demonstrable interest in this application domain and technical expertise complementary to current
departmental strengths. Applications are solicited from candidates with research expertise related
to the Center's theme, in the areas of cybersecurity, wireless communications and networking,
compressive sensing, big data analytics, optical sensing/imaging, RADAR systems and signal
processing, and high performance/embedded computing. Outstanding candidates in areas not
explicitly mentioned are encouraged to apply if their area of expertise can contribute to the theme
of the center.
Applicants must have an earned doctorate in Electrical and Computer Engineering or a related
discipline. Commitment to excellence in teaching at both the undergraduate and graduate levels
is expected. It is also essential that the candidates have potential to establish a strong, externally
sponsored research program, be willing to engage in existing and future large collaborative research
endeavors, and have a desire to work with academic units across campus. Candidates should apply
online at http://www.uacareertrack.com, specifying the Job Number 53671.
Applications will be reviewed starting August 25, 2014 and will continue through the 2015 calendar
year until the positions are filled. The University of Arizona is an EEO/AA Employer - M/W/D/V and is
committed to the support and encouragement of a multicultural environment. We seek candidates
who can make a positive impact with contributions to ethnic, cultural, and intellectual diversity.
