IEEE Spectrum November, 2013 - 65
The Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering (ECE) at Boston University (BU) is seeking candidates
for several faculty positions.
We expect to hire a tenured faculty candidate in the general areas of photonics, solid-state devices and nanostructures. We also expect
two tenure track hires at the assistant professor level: one in the areas of software, systems and cybersecurity and another in the areas of
optimization, machine learning and information systems. The Department is seeking to foster growth in the broad, interdisciplinary topics of
energy, health, information systems, and cyberphysical systems. Candidates with research interests that transcend the traditional boundaries of
ECE are strongly encouraged to apply, and explore potential collaborations with BU's multidisciplinary centers such as the Photonics Center and
the Center for Information and Systems Engineering. Joint appointments with other BU departments and with the Division of Material Science &
Engineering and Division of Systems Engineering are available for candidates with appropriate experience and interests.
Qualified candidates must possess a relevant, earned PhD, and have a demonstrable ability to teach effectively at graduate and undergraduate
levels, develop funded research programs in their area of expertise, and contribute to the tradition of excellence in research that is characteristic
of the ECE Department. Self-motivated individuals who thrive on challenge and are eager to utilize their expertise to strengthen an ambitious
program of departmental enhancement are desired. Women, minorities, and candidates from other underrepresented groups are especially
encouraged to apply and help us continue building an exceptional 21 st century university department.
ECE at BU is a world-class department with excellent resources that is steadily gaining national and international prominence for its exceptional
research and education record. ECE is part of BU's rapidly growing and innovative College of Engineering, currently ranked 38 th and in the top 20
in research funding per faculty member. ECE currently consists of 40 faculty members, 250 graduate students, and 250 BS majors. Outstanding
collaboration opportunities are available with nationally recognized medical centers and universities/colleges, nearby research centers, and
industry throughout the Boston area. Beyond its research and academic activities, BU has a lively, urban campus situated along the banks
of the Charles River in Boston's historic Fenway-Kenmore neighborhood. The campus and surrounding areas offer limitless opportunities for
recreational activities, from world-class art and performances to sporting events and fine dining.
Please visit http://www.bu.edu/ece/facultysearch for instructions on how to apply. Application deadline is December 31, 2013. The review
of applications will begin on October 1, 2013. Therefore, applicants are encouraged to apply early. Boston University is an Equal Opportunity/
Affirmative Action Employer.
Temple University's College of Engineering is conducting a national
search for an innovative leader to serve as Chair of the Department of
Electrical and Computer Engineering. The College of Engineering has
undergone significant transformation to become a research intensive
college and continue preparing the next generation of engineering
professionals. The Department has a growing research program
that includes cyber security, intelligent systems, signals and image
processing, power systems, and communication.
The Chair will be the Chief Academic Officer of the Department
responsible for leading the growth in research, faculty and students.
Plans are underway for the addition of junior faculty with excellent
potential for cluster hiring. The ideal candidate will be expected to have
an established program of research, bring vision to the Department as
an entity where scholarly endeavors may be pursued and be eligible for
tenure at Full Professor level.
All applications will be held in the strictest of confidence. Candidates
should submit curriculum vitae, a letter of interest that addresses
qualifications and commitment to the Department's mission as well as
management and leadership philosophy, and 4 professional references:
