Applications are invited for a tenure-track faculty position to begin Fall 2010. Of interest are candidates whose research is in Software Engineering. The candidate is expected to teach and conduct research in software engineering especially at the graduate level.

Applicants should hold a Ph.D. or its equivalent, and be committed to excellence in research and teaching. We are introducing an MS program in Software Engineering. The new faculty member will have the opportunity to play a major role in this as well as our undergraduate and PhD programs.

The Department has 22 tenure-track, 8 research, and 2 teaching faculty members, 110 graduate students and about 250 undergraduate students. We have significant external funding, including NSF CAREER and DOE Young Investigator Awards.

The University of Delaware is centrally located between Philadelphia and Baltimore, with major government and industrial labs nearby. The Army's Communications-Electronics Research, Development, and Engineering Center (CERDEC) and other units interested in software engineering collaborations are in the process of relocating to Aberdeen, Maryland which is about 30 miles from the campus. A major UDel biotechnology initiative (http://www.dbi.udel.edu) offers opportunities for collaborative research in bioinformatics. Considerable information about the Department and the University is available at http://www.cis.udel.edu and http://www.udel.edu/aboutus, respectively.

Applications should be submitted as a SINGLE PDF FILE to csfacsch@cis.udel.edu and include in order: a cover letter (addressed to Dr. Chien-Chung Shen, Faculty Search Committee Chair), a vita including a list of references, a statement on research and a statement on teaching. Please do NOT include copies of publications. In addition, candidates should have three (3) confidential letters of reference sent directly to csfacsch@cis.udel.edu. The committee will begin reviewing applications on January 15, 2010 and will give preference to applications submitted by that date.
