*** Tenure-Track Computer Science Position at City University of New York,
Lehman College ***

* All Areas, Open Rank *

Lehman College of The City University of New York invites applications at
all levels for a computer science faculty position beginning in Fall 2018.
Outstanding candidates from all areas of computer science will be
considered, but those working in the following research areas are
particularly encouraged to apply: machine learning, robotics, networks,
security, data center-scale computing, and cyber-physical systems. The
successful candidate will be expected to pursue an active, externally
funded research program and to perform high-quality undergraduate teaching
and mentoring.

The Department of Computer Science, which was spun off from the Department
of Mathematics and Computer Science in Fall 2017, currently consists of
seven tenure-track faculty and one lecturer, and plans to expand
aggressively in the coming years. The department offers undergraduate (B.S.
& B.A.) and graduate (M.S.) degrees. Through a joint appointment on the
Graduate Center Doctoral Faculty, the successful candidate will teach and
advise Ph.D. students as well. The Department has a strong focus on
undergraduate education. Our undergraduates are well prepared to find jobs
and internships or to continue graduate education. Recently, the Department
formed a partnership with New York City called the "Tech Talent Pipeline,"
which funds internships for students to gain experience in the tech
industry.

The Lehman College campus is located in Bronx, New York and is a Senior
College within the City University of New York (CUNY) system. Lehman is the
only four-year public college in the Bronx and is recognized as a Hispanic
