University of Washington
Computer Science & Engineering and
Electrical Engineering
Tenure-Track and Research Faculty
The University of Washington’s Department of
Computer Science & Engineering and Depart-
ment of Electrical Engineering have jointly

formed a new UW Experimental Computer Engineering Lab (ExCEL). In support of this effort, the College of Engineering has committed to hiring several new faculty over the forthcoming years. All positions will be dual appointments in both departments (with precise percentages as appropriate for the candidate). This year, we have two open positions, and encourage exceptional candidates in computer engineering, at tenure-track Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, or Professor, or Research Assistant Professor, Research Associate Professor, or Research Professor to apply. A moderate teaching and service load allows time for quality research and close involvement with students. The CSE and EE departments are co-located on campus, enabling cross department collaborations and initiatives. The Seattle area is particularly attractive given the presence of significant industrial research laboratories, a vibrant technology-driven entrepreneurial community, and spectacular natural beauty. Information about ExCEL can be found at http://www.excel.washington.edu.

We welcome applications in all computer engineering areas including but not exclusively: atomics scale devices & nanotechnology, implantable and biologically-interfaced devices, synthetic molecular engineering, VLSI, embedded systems, sensor systems, parallel computing, network systems, and technology for the developing world. We expect candidates to have a strong commitment both to research and teaching. ExCEL is seeking individuals at all career levels, with appointments commensurate with the candidate’s qualifications and experience. Applicants for both tenure-track and research positions must have earned a PhD by the date of appointment.

Please apply online at http://www. excel.washington.edu/jobs.html with a letter of application, a complete curriculum vitae, statement of research and teaching interests, and the names of at least four references. Applications received by January 31st, 2008 will be given priority consideration.

The University of Washington was awarded an Alfred P. Sloan Award for Faculty Career Flexibility in 2006. In addition, the University of Washington is a recipient of a National Science Foundation ADVANCE Institutional Transformation Award to increase the participation of woman in academic science and engineering careers. We are building a culturally diverse faculty and encourage applications from women and minority candidates.
