Tenure-Track, Research, and
Teaching Faculty
Positions in Computer Science & Engineering
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
women in academic science and engineering careers. The University of
Washington is an affirmative action, equal opportunity employer. We
are building a culturally diverse faculty and encourage applications
from women, minorities, individuals with disabilities and covered
veterans.
Thank you for your interest in faculty positions in the University of
Washington Department of Computer Science & Engineering! The
faculty recruiting website is now closed for new applications this
year. We expect to open the 2008-9 faculty recruiting season on or
about 1 November 2008.
For this season, we had an extraordinary number of highly qualified
applicants, and have invited a set of candidates to interview. This
involved some difficult decisions— we could easily have invited
quite a few more. At this point it is unlikely that we will invite
any candidates besides those already invited.
Questions about the application process may be directed to
frc at cs.washington.edu
The University of Washington's Department of Computer Science &
Engineering has one or more open positions in a wide variety of
technical areas in both Computer Science and Computer Engineering, and
at all professional levels. A moderate teaching and service load
allows time for quality research and close involvement with
students. Our recent move into the Paul G. Allen Center for Computer
Science & Engineering expands opportunities for new projects and
initiatives. The Seattle area is particularly attractive given the
presence of significant industrial research laboratories as well as a
vibrant technology-driven entrepreneurial community that further
enhance the intellectual atmosphere. Information about the department
can be found on the web at
http://www.cs.washington.edu/.
We welcome applicants in all research areas in Computer Science and
Computer Engineering including both core and inter-disciplinary areas.
We expect candidates to have a strong commitment both to research and
to teaching. The department is primarily seeking individuals at the
tenure-track Assistant Professor rank; however, under unusual
circumstances and commensurate with the qualifications of the
individual, appointments may be made at the rank of Associate
Professor or Professor. We also seek non-tenured research faculty at
Assistant, Associate and Professor levels, and full-time annual
Lecturers and Sr. Lecturers. Applicants for both tenure-track and
research positions must have earned a PhD. by the date of appointment;
those applying for lecturer positions must have earned at least a
Master's degree.
Applications received by February 29, 2008 will be given priority
consideration.
Please apply online
on or after November 1, 2007 at
http://norfolk.cs.washington.edu/apply with a letter of
application, a complete curriculum vitae, statement of research and
teaching interests, and the names of four references.

Joint CSE/EE Positions
Thank you for your interest in faculty positions in the University of
Washington Experimental Computer Engineering Lab (ExCEL)! The
faculty recruiting website is now closed for new applications this
year. We expect to open the 2008-9 faculty recruiting season on or
about 1 November 2008.
Questions about the application process may be directed to
frc at excel.washington.edu
The University of Washington's Department of Computer Science &
Engineering and Department 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 candidateās qualifications and
experience. Applicants for both tenure-track and research positions
must have earned a PhD by the date of appointment.
Applications received by January 31, 2008 will be given priority
consideration.
Please apply online
on or after November 1, 2007 at

Director, Animation Research Labs
University of Washington Computer Science & Engineering is
seeking a Director for a new interdisciplinary center of research and
education, called the Animation Research Labs (ARL).
The mission of the Animation Research Labs is to advance the state
of the art in animation through research, teaching, and
computer-animated production. The ARL is a place where computer
scientists, animators, artists, musicians, architects, storywriters,
and user-interface designers will work together to create new
algorithms, systems, and tools for computer animation -- and use these
advances to create innovative and experimental animated productions,
including interactive forms of animation such as web-based animation
and games. The ARL is an interdisciplinary undertaking of the
Department of Computer Science & Engineering, together with the
Schools of Art, Music, and Architecture.
We are seeking outstanding candidates, worthy of a tenured
associate professor or professor position, to direct the Animation
Research Labs. The Director is expected to be the guiding force and
most visible representative of the ARL; to pursue a highly visible and
internationally recognized program of animation-related teaching and
research; and to create rich, deep ties with industry. The Director
will work with an already very strong group of existing faculty in
computer graphics and computer vision, with the potential of hiring
even more faculty in these areas.
More information about the Animation Research Labs can be found on
the web at http://www.cs.washington.edu/ARL.
Candidates for the position should have a Ph.D. or its
equivalent. Letters of interest should include a full c.v., the names
of four references, and information about administrative
experience. Materials should be sent to:
