Faculty Positions in Intelligent Systems Engineering

The School of Informatics and Computing (SoIC) at Indiana University (IU) Bloomington invites applications for multiple open rank tenure/ten-ure track faculty positions to begin in Fall 2017 in Intelligent Systems Engineering. Cluster hires are encouraged as are interdisciplinary applications spanning the interests of SoIC and collaborating with IU units. Duties include teaching, research, and service.

Applicants should have an established record (for senior level) or demonstrable potential for excellence (for junior level) in research and teaching, and a PhD in a relevant field or (for junior level) expected before 8/2017.

The department of Intelligent Systems Engineering is an innovative new program, currently with 12 faculty, that focuses on the engineering of systems of smaller-scale, often mobile devices that draw upon modern information technology techniques including intelligent systems, big data and user interface design. Its foundation also includes computer engineering, cyber-physical systems, robotics, sensor and detector technologies, signal processing, and information and control theory. We intend to add about 20 new faculty over the next 4 years for these areas as well as bioengineering, synthetic biology, molecular and nanoscale engineering, environmental engineering and neuro-engineering with an interdisciplinary IT component. The program offers a BS and a PhD, which started in fall 2016, while a future MS will be developed. Artificial Intelligence, Modelling and Simulation and the Internet of Things are integrated into core curriculum. The program will draw upon IU Bloomington’s considerable education and research strengths in biology, chemistry, computer science, environmental science, informatics, physics, network science, psychological and brain sciences, business and law. New faculty will have considerable opportunity and responsibility to shape the development of curricula and research. There will be a strong emphasis on world-class research, built around a few strong focused laboratories and proactively involving undergraduates.

The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) has embarked on a focused cluster hiring plan under the Gold Star Initiative, to recruit top-tier researchers over a four year period. The plan will focus on strategic areas of research excellence, to include cybersecurity, cloud computing and data analytics. UTSA is currently looking for candidates to fill six faculty positions to foster collaborative research, education and outreach and to create interdisciplinary areas of knowledge that will advance the field of cybersecurity.

UTSA is a recognized leader in the field of infrastructure assurance and security by the National Security Agency and the Department of Homeland Security and is a designated Center of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance Education (CAE). In spring 2014, UTSA was ranked #1 nationally for Cyber Security Programs according to a national survey of certified information technology security professionals conducted for Hewlett-Packard. UTSA is home to the Institute for Cyber Security (ICS), which conducts basic and applied cybersecurity research in partnership with academia, government and industry. The Center for Infrastructure Assurance and Security (CIAS), also located at UTSA, has developed the world’s foremost center for multidisciplinary education and development of operational capabilities in the areas of infrastructure assurance and security. In complement to the ICS and CIAS, the Center for Education and Research in Information and Infrastructure Security (CERI2S) conducts high impact research, as well as educates the cybersecurity workforce within the San Antonio area and beyond. In partnership with Rackspace, UTSA houses the largest open cloud infrastructure in academia. The Open Cloud Institute is an initiative to develop degree programs in cloud computing and foster collaboration with industry, positioning UTSA and San Antonio as world leaders in open cloud technology.

Required Qualifications and Responsibilities:

The successful applicant will have a Doctoral degree (Ph.D.) and publications commensurate with appointment levels in the department of interest. Successful candidates will be expected to develop and maintain externally funded research programs, engage in both undergraduate and graduate education, and contribute their leadership and innovative thinking towards global prominence in cybersecurity. Teaching opportunities will vary by department and teaching qualifications will be a consideration for fit within their respective department.
