*Tenure-track or Tenured Faculty Positions, Center on Frontiers of 
Computing Studies, Peking University*

The Center on Frontiers of Computing Studies (CFCS), Peking University 
(PKU), China, is a university new initiative co-founded by Professors 
John Hopcroft (Turing Awardee) and Wen Gao (CNE, ACM/IEEE Fellow). The 
center aims at developing the excellence on two fronts: research and 
education. On the research front, the center will provide a world-class 
research environment for faculty member development, where innovation 
and impactful research is the central aim, measured by professional 
reputation among world scholars, not by counting the number of 
publications and research funding. On the education front, the center 
hosts the Turing Class, an elite undergraduate program that draws the 
cream of the crop from the PKU undergraduate talent pool. New curriculum 
and pedagogy are designed and practiced in this program, with the aim to 
cultivate a new generation of computer scientist/engineers that are 
solid in both theories and practices.

*Positions and Qualification*

The center invites applications for tenured/tenure-track faculty 
positions. We are seeking applicants from all areas of Computer Science, 
spanning theoretical foundations, systems, software, and applications, 
with special interests in artificial intelligence and machine learning. 
We are especially interested in applicants conducting research at the 
frontiers of Computer Science with other disciplines, such as data 
sciences, engineering, as well as mathematical, medical, physical, and 
social sciences.

Applicants are expected to have completed (or be completing) a Ph.D., 
have demonstrated the ability to pursue a program of research, and have 
a strong commitment to undergraduate and graduate teaching. A successful 
candidate will be expected to teach one to two courses at the 
undergraduate and graduate levels in each semester, and to build and 
lead a team of undergraduate and graduate students in innovative research.

*Salary and Benefits*

All newly hired faculty members will be provided with necessary startup 
resource and research infrastructures.  Salaries and benefits are 
internationally competitive and are to be individually negotiated in 
each case, commensurate with the candidate’s academic credentials.

*To Apply:*

Applicants should send a full curriculum vitae; copies of 3-5 key 
publications; three to five names and contact information of references; 
and a statement of research and teaching to: CFCS_recruiting@pku.edu.cn 
<mailto:CFCS_recruiting@pku.edu.cn>

We conduct review of applications monthly, immediately upon the 
recipient of all application materials at the beginning of each month. 
However, it is highly recommended that applicants submit complete 
applications sooner rather than later, as the positions are to be filled 
quickly.
