  Tenure Track Assistant Professorship


  /» Games Engineering «/

Initially pay-scale grade W2, to be filled as soon as possible.

We are looking for an excellent scientist with a high potential for 
developing an internationally recognized research agenda in the field of 
/Games Engineering/. The successful candidate is expected to conduct 
research and teaching in /Games Engineering/. The candidate should have 
comprehensive skills -- including a university degree -- in computer 
science. We are expecting a research record in at least one of the 
following fields: Realtime Rendering, Computer Animation, Visual 
Simulation. We are seeking for applicants who have gained experience in 
industrial game development, with a focus on the technical realization 
of immersive 3D computer games.

We expect the candidate to actively take part in the Bachelor and 
upcoming Master program Informatics: Games Engineering, and to have an 
ability to pursue scientific research at international level in one of 
the addressed fields. Teaching assignments include courses in the 
subject area and the basic courses offered by the department as well as 
courses for other academic TUM departments. The ability to teach in 
English and German is a prerequisite for TUM Professors.

The initial appointment will be for 6 years. After positive evaluation 
in the final year, the candidate is tenured on an Associate Professor 
level. Tenure evaluation may be initiated after a minimum of three years 
only in exceptional cases, justified by extraordinarily outstanding 
achievements or in regard of particularly strategic significance in 
shaping the university's profile.

Eligible candidates typically hold a doctorate, have established a 
strong track record in the postdoctoral phase, and demonstrate 
pedagogical and personal aptitude as well as substantial international 
experience. Family leave will be taken into consideration.

Supported by competitive start-up resources, candidates are expected to 
develop an independent and vigorous research program. Furthermore, 
candidates should be committed to excellence in undergraduate/graduate 
teaching and in supervising PhD students.

As part of the Excellence Initiative of the German federal and state 
governments, TUM has been pursuing the strategic goal of substantially 
increasing the diversity of its faculty. As an equal opportunity and 
affirmative action employer, TUM explicitly encourages nominations of 
and applications from women as well as from all others who would bring 
additional diversity dimensions to the university's research and 
teaching strategies. Preference will be given to disabled candidates 
with essentially the same qualifications. The TUM Munich Dual Career 
Office provides support for dual career couples and families.

Applications accompanied by supporting documentation (CV, certificates, 
credentials, list of publications including 3 selected reprints, list of 
courses taught, and presentation of research and teaching strategies, 
names and addresses of at least 3 references) should be submitted by 
October 15, 2012 to:

*Dekan der Fakultät für Informatik*

*Technische Universität München *

*Boltzmannstr. 3, D-85748 Garching (Germany)*
