OPENING for a FACULTY POSITION (ASSISTANT PROFESSOR) in the ALGORITHMS GROUP at the TU THE TU ----------------------------- The Technische Universiteit Eindhoven (TU/e) was established
in 1956 as a polytechnic. It has grown into a technical university with nine
faculties. The TU/e now has approximately 3000 employees and 6000
students. The campus is in the center of THE FACULTY OF MATHEMATICS AND COMPUTER SCIENCE AT THE TU ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The faculty offers bachelors and master programs in computer
science and mathematics. Currently the faculty has more than 600 students, and
about 200 employees. The department of computer science has a scientific staff
of about 40 people, plus a large number of postdocs and PhD students. THE ALGORITHMS GROUP AT THE TU ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- The design and analysis of efficient algorithms and data
structures forms an important part of computer science. Fall 2002, a new
research group working in this area has been established at the department of
computer science at the TU Eindhoven. Computational geometry is one of the
focal points of the group, but other areas of algorithms---graph algorithms and
I/O-efficient algorithms for instance---fall within its area of interest as
well. The group currently consists of three faculty, namely prof.
Mark de Berg, prof. Herman Haverkort, and prof. Bettina Speckmann, as well as
several postdocs and PhD students. For more information on the group, see: http://www.win.tue.nl/algo/ THE POSITION ---------------------- There is an opening for an assistant professor in the
Algorithms group. Ideally, the candidate should work at the interface of
computational geometry and some other area. This can either be an application
area such as robotics, graphics, CAD/CAM or GIS, or another algorithms area
such as I/O-efficient algorithms, graph algorithms, or graph drawing. As a faculty member you are expected to perform research in
one of the indicated areas, to supervise master students and PhD students, and
apply for research grants to fund students. You are also expected to teach
courses, both in the master programs and in the bachelor program offered by the
department, and to participate in the general management tasks of the
department. WE ASK ----------- Candidates should have a PhD in computer science. They
should have experience in performing algorithms research, and have published in
international conferences and journals in the area. Candidates should also have
teaching experience and/or be willing to follow didactic courses. WE OFFER ------------------ We offer a position in a strong and international research
group. You will first be appointed for a two-year period, in order to be
evaluated for a permanent position afterwards. Salary will be according to the
