Lectureships in Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence

School of Cognitive and Computing Sciences, University of Sussex, UK

Applications are invited for two Lectureships in the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Group: one permanent and one two-year fixed-term post. The persons appointed will be members of of the School of Cognitive and Computing Sciences (COGS). The Group is highly rated (awarded the highest rank in each of the last two research-assessment exercises).

The permanent vacancy is for a theoretical computer scientist, to replace Dr Edmund Robinson (now professor-elect of the University of London). Theoretical computer science is one of the group's chief areas of research strength with particular interests in the semantics of programming languages and theories of concurrency.

The fixed-term post replaces a member of staff on secondment. Appropriate subject specialisms include software engineering, software design, human-computer interaction and CSCW. Involvement with our innovative MSc in Human-Centred Computer Systems is likely.

Salaries will be on the 1A or 1B scale.
