Tenure-track Faculty Positions in the Department of Computer Science at NJIT 
=============================================================================

The Computer Science Department at New Jersey Institute of Technology
(NJIT) invites applications for multiple tenure-track faculty
positions starting in Fall 2019. Areas of special interest are:  

- Programming Languages; Software Engineering

- Computer Graphics, Geometric Modeling and Robotics. Priority will be
  given to candidates whose research has the potential to leverage
  NJIT's brand-new, advanced Makerspace facility for 3D Printing,
  Computational Manufacturing, and Digital Fabrication (https://www.njitmakerspace.com/) 

- Foundations of Data Science and Machine Learning; Artificial Intelligence

- Distributed Systems

Exceptional candidates in other areas will also be considered. While
we are especially interested in hiring at the rank of Assistant
Professor, exceptional candidates at higher ranks will be
considered. Applicants must have a Ph.D. degree by Summer 2019 in a
relevant discipline, and outstanding academic credentials that
demonstrate their ability to conduct independent world-class research
and attract external funding. The successful candidate is also
expected to show a commitment to both undergraduate and graduate
education. 

NJIT's Computer Science Department has 40 faculty and approximately
1600 students at all levels across nine programs of study. The
Computer Science Department participates alongside NJIT's Informatics
Department in generating the largest pool of computing talent in the
tri-state (CT, NJ, NY) area. The department conducts research in a
wide range of areas and plays a key role in the NJIT Center for Big
Data and the NJIT Cybersecurity Research Center. The department has
strong connections with local industry and works closely with many
corporations through student Capstone projects, internships, co-ops
and joint R&D projects. 

The Computer Science Department is housed in a state-of-the art
facility renovated in Fall 2018. The department resides within the
Ying Wu College of Computing, which is undergoing significant growth
as a priority area for NJIT. This growth is an integral part of NJIT's
five-year strategic plan, called Vision 2020, which calls for
consolidating NJIT as a world-class institution of higher education
and research. Applied research, collaboration with industry,
innovation and entrepreneurship are encouraged and
supported. Performance and tenure expectations are aligned with those
of the broader computing community, with an emphasis on grant funding
and publishing in top conferences and journals. 

The Ying Wu College of Computing comprises 24% of the NJIT enrollment,
educating more than 2,800 students in computing disciplines, and
graduating close to 800 computing professionals every year.

NJIT is located in Newark's University Heights, a vibrant sprawling
downtown campus close to Rutgers-Newark, New Jersey Innovation
Institute, Essex Community College, New Jersey Medical School,
University Hospital, and Rutgers School of Dental Medicine. NJIT is
just a 30-minute train ride from New York City and its burgeoning
Silicon Alley tech sector. In the near future, NJIT plans to open a
facility in Jersey City, just across the Hudson River from the
financial district of Lower Manhattan in New York City.
