Help lead and develop world-class Computer Graphics teaching and 
research in one of the world’s most livable cities. Wellington is New 
Zealand’s political and creative capital, and with Weta Digital on our 
doorstep, we are a global destination for Computer Graphics research and 
industry.

The School of Engineering and Computer Science at Victoria University of 
Wellington – New Zealand’s top ranked research University – seeks to 
make a senior leadership appointment in the area of Computer Graphics. 
Victoria University of Wellington enjoys the benefits of New Zealand’s 
wonderful landscape and lifestyle; contacts with Government; national 
research funders; and a vibrant graphics industry. We pride ourselves on 
our collegiality and multidisciplinary collaborations with many top 
ranked research groups.

We partner with the Faculty of Engineering’s Computational Media 
Innovation Centre (CMIC), led by Professor Ken Anjyo and Associate 
Professor Taehyun Rhee, and have close connections with Weta Digital and 
Weta Workshop, Epic Games, OLM Digital, and Square Enix.

You will have the opportunity to lead the development of the Computer 
Graphics programme within the School of Engineering and Computer 
Science, and you will liaise closely with the Computational Media 
Innovation Centre and the School of Design to help ensure a coordinated 
programme.  You will also teach a number of courses in the Computer 
Graphics programme: an opportunity to inspire the next generation of 
Computer Graphics graduates.

Computer Graphics in ECS and CMIC currently includes eight faculty, 
seven postdoctoral students and fellows, eight PhD students, and seven 
Masters students. About 200 students from a diverse range of majors 
enroll in our first year Computer Graphics courses every year, 
representing the interdisciplinary appeal of Computer Graphics.
