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 and Computing Systems will be given serious consideration, but especially those that broaden the department in emerging areas or that strengthen existing areas. Particular areas of interest include, but are not limited to: computer security, computer architecture, computer/neural interface, nano enabled technologies, and energy systems.
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 position 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 is primarily seeking individuals for research faculty positions, and tenure track 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. Senior-level applicants should have demonstrated leadership within the community and in building a strong research program, and have a distinguished teaching and research record. Applicants must have earned a doctorate in a related area by the date of appointment.
Applications should specify the position (research or tenure track) and include a comprehensive resume, a list of three to five professional references, a statement of research and teaching 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 applications must be sent to:
