The School of Computer & Information Science is the principal centre for teaching and research in computer science and software engineering at the University of South Australia. It has made rapid progress over the last five years to become a leading centre for teaching and research in Information Technology. The research profile of the School has been strengthened by the recent appointment of two new professors and now has 26 academic staff, approximately 450 students and offers a full range of awards from Associate Diploma to Doctorate.
The research activities in computing and advanced software engineering at the University of South Australia are based in the Advanced Computing Research Centre (ACRC), one of nine newly funded research centres at the University. The designated research areas of the ACRC are software engineering, database systems, concurrent systems and artificial intelligence/expert systems.
We are seeking to appoint an Associate Professor with a research background which will strengthen the above research areas. The appointee will have a substantial research record, including publications and research grants, and will have demonstrated abilities to create and manage a successful research team, including the necessary leadership qualities. Essential criteria include a doctorate in computer science or closely related discipline or equivalent accreditation and standing, an outstanding research record, preferably in one of the research areas listed above, and a record of teaching excellence in a tertiary education environment.
