The Department of Computer Science at Rowan University, the third fastest growing public research institution as recognized by The Chronicle of Higher Education, is seeking to hire one or more tenure-track faculty to begin their appointment in September 2023. This search is part of a broader, multi-year faculty hiring initiative across the College of Science & Mathematics.
Outstanding candidates with strong research interests in any area of Computer Science will be considered; the preferred research focus is Cybersecurity and closely related fields.
A Ph.D. in Computer Science, or in a closely-related field, is required. Preference will be given to candidates with a track record and/or potential to establish and sustain a strong research program. We anticipate hiring at the Assistant Professor level, but outstanding candidates may be considered at the Associate or Full Professor levels. The successful candidates are expected to develop and maintain an active, highly visible, extramurally funded research program with outstanding scholarship, teach at the undergraduate and graduate levels, and contribute to the various service endeavors in the Department, College, and University.

Candidates must be legally authorized to work in the U.S. All positions are contingent upon budget appropriations.
