The Cornell University Department of Computer Science (CS) in the Cornell Ann S. Bowers College of Computing and Information Science (Bowers CIS) has multiple faculty positions available at its Ithaca campus (tenured and tenure-track). Cornell CS is ranked among the top computer science departments in the country (http://www.cs.cornell.edu/).  Ithaca, NY is in the heart of the Finger Lakes region, which offers a vibrant cultural life and a wide range of sporting and outdoor activities with the pleasures of both city and country close at hand.

Applications from all areas of computer science and related fields are welcome.

Faculty hired in these positions will be members of the Department of Computer Science, which spans the Ithaca and New York City campuses, but their teaching and research will be based in Ithaca. A separate application is needed to be considered for a Computer Science position at the New York City campus; please visit the website https://www.cs.cornell.edu/information/jobpostings/facultypositionsnyctech for further information about the New York City application process.

Tenured and tenure-track faculty must hold the equivalent of a Ph.D. Applicants must have demonstrated an ability to conduct outstanding research. Successful candidates are expected to pursue an active research program, to teach graduate and undergraduate courses, and to supervise graduate students.

To ensure full consideration, applications should be received by December 1, 2024, but applications will be accepted until all positions are filled.

Fostering an inclusive environment is a core value of the Computer Science Department and Cornell as a whole. In line with Cornell’s historical commitment to educating “… any person … in any study…”, we seek candidates who will create a climate that helps attract and is inclusive of all students, including students from historically underrepresented groups and students who have overcome personal challenges. 

Applicants should submit a curriculum vitae and brief statements of research and teaching interests, identify one or two top publications to which they have made significant contributions, and arrange to have at least three reference letters submitted at: https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/28414. We ask applicants for all faculty positions to share their experiences and/or approaches (past, current, or future) to fostering learning, research service, and/or outreach in a diverse community. Applicants may choose to submit a stand-alone statement or embed the information in other parts of their application materials.
