Hi everyone,

We have a faculty search this year that is related to VIS and Data 
Science. I'm the chair for the "Systems for Data Science" track of the 
search. If you are interested, please do not hesitate to reach out!

Below is the full job post for your convenience


Tufts University: School of Engineering: Computer Science
Location: Boston, MA
________________________________

The Department of Computer Science at Tufts University invites 
applications for multiple tenure-track faculty positions to begin in 
September 2018. We are seeking candidates at the rank of Assistant 
Professor but exceptional candidates at the rank of Associate or full 
Professor will also be considered. We are especially interested in 
candidates with research in Artificial Intelligence/Machine 
Learning/Robotics, Security, and Systems for Data Science, where these 
areas are broadly construed. Exceptional candidates in other areas will 
be considered as well.

We are looking for engaged and engaging researchers and teachers with a 
strong vision who can build and maintain a high-quality research program 
at Tufts and whose research will both connect with some of our current 
faculty and extend into new areas.

Artificial Intelligence: We seek candidates to complement the 
department's strengths in artificial intelligence, machine learning, 
robotics, and human-robot interaction. We are especially interested in 
candidates bridging research in machine learning, natural language 
understanding, and robotics but candidates in all areas of AI are 
encouraged to apply.

Security: We seek candidates to complement the department's strengths in 
language-based security, cybersecurity policy, and privacy. Areas of 
particular interest include network security, systems security, security 
of IoT systems, and resilience, but candidates in all security-related 
areas are encouraged to apply.

Systems for Data Science: We seek candidates to complement the 
department's strengths in system management for big data, networking, 
programming languages, visual analytics and human-computer interaction. 
Applicants in all areas of systems for big data (that enable the 
collection, storage, computation, retrieval, enrichment, interaction, 
analysis, communication, and human understanding of large amounts of 
data) are encouraged to apply.

The department has grown significantly in the past decade in faculty and 
student size and in research funding. Located in the Boston area, the 
department benefits from outstanding undergraduate and graduate 
students, collaborative faculty, and cross-disciplinary research 
opportunities. Tufts University is one of the smallest universities 
ranked as a Research 1 university, so it offers the best of a liberal 
arts college atmosphere coupled with the intellectual and technological 
resources of a major research university. Tufts University supports and 
encourages a culture of interdisciplinary research and there are 
numerous such opportunities within the School of Engineering, School of 
Arts and Sciences, the Fletcher School of Law & Diplomacy, and our other 
graduate and professional schools.

The Tufts School of Engineering distinguishes itself by the 
interdisciplinary focus and integrative nature of its engineering 
education within the intellectually rich environment of a research 
university. Located only six miles from historic downtown Boston, 
faculty members on the Tufts Medford/Somerville campus have extensive 
opportunities for academic and industrial collaboration as well as 
participation in the rich intellectual life of the area. The School of 
Engineering is in the midst of a period of exciting growth that has seen 
the recruitment of outstanding new faculty, a quadrupling of funded 
research over the last ten years, the addition of new buildings and 
laboratory space, an emphasis on building diversity in engineering, and 
major curricular initiatives at both the undergraduate and graduate levels.

QUALIFICATIONS

Applicants must hold a doctorate by the beginning of the appointment, 
must have an active research program, must show promise of continued 
outstanding research activity, and must exhibit a strong commitment to 
excellence in teaching.

Expertise in Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning/Robotics, 
Security, or Systems for Data Science is preferred.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS

Please submit your application online through Interfolio at 
https://apply.interfolio.com/43666. We request the following: (a) a 
letter of application explaining your interest in Tufts and in this 
position, (b) your curriculum vitae, (c) a statement describing your 
current and planned research, (d) a statement of your teaching 
philosophy, (e) a sample of your scholarly work, and (f) three to five 
confidential reference letters.
