Academic Unit: Computer Science

Category of Appointment: Preliminary (tenure-track)/tenured

Rank/Position Title: Assistant or Associate Professor and Canada Research Chair, Tier 2

Closing Date: Consideration of candidates will begin on November 30, 2023.

Carleton University's Faculty of Science is seeking applications for a Natural Science and Engineering Research Council (NSERC) Tier 2 Canada Research Chair (CRC) position in the School of Computer Science, focused on Artificial Intelligence (AI) and/or Cybersecurity. The successful candidate will be appointed as an Assistant or Associate Professor, possibly with tenure, depending on qualifications. The appointee is expected to apply to the CRC program within the first year of their appointment.

The university encourages researchers specializing in AI and/or cybersecurity, encompassing areas such as reinforcement learning, computer and internet security. Emphasis is placed on welcoming diverse perspectives to address complex problems in computer science, particularly encouraging candidates from underrepresented groups in the field and with experience in mentoring such students.

Tier 2 Chairs are intended for exceptional emerging scholars (i.e., candidates must have been an active researcher in their field for fewer than 10 years at the time of nomination). Applicants who are more than 10 years from having earned their highest degree (and where career breaks exist, such as maternity, parental or extended sick leave, clinical training, etc.) may have their eligibility for a Tier 2 Chair assessed through the program’s Tier 2 justification process.

三、资格能力

兴趣研究领域

人工智能:该学院寻求研究人员探索人工智能和机器学习在各个领域的变革性应用，包括健康、通信、商业和金融。具体的兴趣领域包括强化学习、自然语言处理和计算机视觉。

网络安全:快速的技术进步增加了计算和通信网络的漏洞。该学院对研究加密软件工程、软件安全和编程语言、软件安全和测试、隐私、监视、审查、计算机取证和网络安全事件分析的候选人特别感兴趣。后量子密码学也是一个有趣的领域。

计算机科学学院也欢迎研究跨越这些学科交叉的申请人。
