The Department of Computer Science at the University of Illinois at 
Chicago (UIC) invites applications for multiple tenure-track faculty 
positions at all levels, to begin August 2014. All candidates should 
have (or soon have) a doctorate in Computer Science or a related field 
and demonstrate significant scholarship in one of the following areas: 
visualization, computer graphics, human-computer interaction and 
computer supported cooperative work. Candidates will be expected to 
carry out world class research, collaborate with faculty from a wide 
range of disciplines, and teach effectively at the undergraduate and 
graduate levels. Senior candidates must have an outstanding research 
record in the computer science topics listed above, a strong record of 
funded research, demonstrated leadership in collaborative research, and 
an excellent teaching record at the undergraduate and graduate level.

Successful candidates will have the opportunity to become part of the 
research team at the UIC Electronic Visualization Laboratory (EVL). EVL, 
established in 1973, represents the oldest formal collaboration between 
engineering and art in the country, specializing in the design and 
development of visualization, virtual-reality and collaboration systems 
utilizing high-performance networks. Recent key projects include SAGE? 
(Scalable Adaptive Graphics Environment), the CAVE2? Hybrid Reality 
Environment, and the TransLight/StarLight project prototyping innovative 
100Gb transoceanic services. For more information on EVL, see 
http://www.evl.uic.edu/.

UIC ranks among the nation?s top 50 universities in federal research 
funding and is ranked the fourth best U.S. university under 50 years old 
by Times Higher Education. It also is home to the largest medical school 
in the country. The UIC Computer Science Department is a leading 
department within the University; it has 24 tenure-track faculty members 
and offers BS, MS and PhD degrees. It has annual research expenditures 
of $9.4M, primarily federally funded. The faculty includes two ACM 
Fellows and nine NSF CAREER award recipients. UIC is an excellent place 
for interdisciplinary research; Computer Science faculty is engaged in 
many cross-departmental collaborations with faculty from engineering, 
health sciences, social sciences, urban planning, education, design, 
arts, and business. For more information on the Computer Science 
Department, see http://www.cs.uic.edu/.

Chicago epitomizes the modern, livable, vibrant city. Located on the 
shore of Lake Michigan, it offers an outstanding array of recreational 
and cultural experiences. As the birthplace of the modern skyscraper, 
Chicago boasts one of the world?s tallest and densest skylines, combined 
with an extensive system of parks and public transit. Yet the cost of 
living, whether in an 85th floor condominium downtown or on a tree-lined 
street in one of the nation?s finest school districts, is surprisingly low.

Applications must be submitted at https://jobs.uic.edu/. Please include 
a resume, teaching and research statements, and contact information for 
three professional references in the online application. Applicants 
needing additional information may contact the Faculty Search Chair at 
EVLsearch@cs.uic.edu <mailto:EVLsearch@cs.uic.edu>. For fullest 
consideration please apply by January 10, 2014. UIC is an Affirmative 
Action/Equal Opportunity Employer. Salary will be commensurate with 
experience. The positions will remain open until filled.
