    BACKGROUND

    Franklin & Marshall College invites applications for a tenure-track Assistant Professor position in COMPUTER SCIENCE, beginning Fall 2009.

    The successful candidate will have a Ph.D. in Computer Science (or a related field) with a specialty in informatics. While the initial appointment will be in the Department of Mathematics, the College is committed to forming a new department of Computer Science. In addition, in 2008, the Howard Hughes Medical Institute awarded the College a substantial grant to launch a bioinformatics program. The successful candidate will—together with colleagues in Computer Science and Biology—design, implement, and sustain new majors in Computer Science and Bioinformatics.

    RESPONSIBILITIES

    Our teaching load is 3/2 and includes participation in the College’s general education requirement, “Foundations,” and/or our First-Year Seminar program. A course release is available in each of the first two years for work on program development.

    REQUIREMENTS

    Teaching experience, evidence of scholarly achievement, and demonstrated interest in collaborating with colleagues from other disciplines are all required.

    COMPENSATION

    Salary will be competitive with computer science salaries at other liberal arts institutions, and significant support is provided for students to collaborate on research.

    HOW TO APPLY

    Candidates should submit the following to Barbara Nimershiem, Chair, Computer Science Search Committee, Franklin & Marshall College, P.O. Box 3003, Lancaster PA 17604-3003 USA:

    • three letters of recommendation, including at least one that addresses the applicant’s teaching ability.
    We will not accept application materials electronically.
