Open Rank Tenure Track Faculty Position in Human-Centered Computing
Department of Human-Centered Computing
Indiana University School of Informatics and Computing
Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis
The Indiana University School of Informatics and Computing – Indianapolis invites applications for one or more open-rank tenure-track faculty positions in the Department of Human-Centered Computing. The appointment will begin August 1, 2016 at the Indiana University–Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) campus. Exceptional researchers are being sought to join our fast-growing department. Candidates must demonstrate an outstanding scholarly record of research, exhibited by high-impact peer-reviewed publications and a forward-looking, vigorous research agenda that will secure competitive, external funding. While we are seeking candidates in all areas of Human-Centered Computing, we are particularly interested in those with strong research experience and a commitment to graduate and undergraduate teaching in the areas of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Informatics. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): accessibility, embodied interaction, interaction design, healthcare HCI, “big data” and visual analytics. By strengthening or complementing the faculty research in the department, the ideal candidates will use creative, innovative approaches and technologies to address fundamental HCI and informatics challenges with broader societal impact, and have the potential to leverage the strengths of the IUPUI campus, including its unique location in downtown Indianapolis, opportunities for civically-engaged research, interdisciplinary and collaborative environment and nation-wide leadership in the health and life sciences. Highly-qualified candidates at all ranks will be considered.
