The University of Leicester has an international reputation
for its research and teaching. In order to build further on
the recent successes of the Department of Computer Science,
the University is making a strategic investment by creating
three new lectureships in computer science.

The successful candidates will have a strong research record,
with a background in the theoretical foundations of computer
science, and will be able to contribute to undergraduate and
postgraduate teaching and supervision of mainstream projects
in a broad range of topics.

We are keen to make appointments that will contribute to our
research excellence either in the foundations of computational
models, processes or structures, or the way they support the
engineering of software-intensive systems, including
socio-technical systems. Current research themes can be
found at:http://www.cs.le.ac.uk/research

Ability to teach software re-engineering,
software measurement and quality, or web technologies would
be desirable. Ability to attract funding or engage with
industry are other aspects that we will rate very highly.
