Posting Summary |
The Department of Computer Science at Rutgers University invites applications for an instructional, non-tenure track position. A PhD degree in Computer Science or closely related field is required. The teaching faculty position targets Rutgers's instructional needs in the areas of AI, Machine Learning, and Data Science. Rutgers has recently launched a new major in Data Science and is committed to teaching excellence at the undergraduate and graduate levels. We are searching for an Assistant Teaching Professor or Associate Teaching Professor, but will consider excellent applications for all ranks, including Teaching Professor and Distinguished Teaching Professor. Depending on experience, suitable candidates will be invited to teach in our Masters program or to develop and manage applied learning opportunities such as internships. The appointment will start September 1, 2025.
Computer Science is the largest undergraduate major in the School of Arts and Sciences. Rutgers is located in New Jersey, a demographically diverse state. Our student body reflects this diversity. The School of Arts and Sciences and the Computer Science Department are interested in hiring more faculty who look like our students. Our department has a strong commitment to fostering inclusive classrooms and students' sense of belonging, encouraging student research and entrepreneurship, developing innovative teaching tools and methods, serving as a hub to strengthen computer science teaching throughout the state of New Jersey, and contributing to community-wide efforts to broaden participation in computing and advance computer science education.
Instructional faculty have a promotion ladder through all ranks up to Distinguished Teaching Professor. The collective bargaining contract governs terms of appointment, increase with seniority, and are presumptively renewable after initial probationary appointments, and must be renewed at least a year in advance. Instructional faculty are voting members of the department and the school and are encouraged to take up administrative and leadership responsibilities commensurate with their skills and interests.
The standard teaching load is five courses per year, which can be reduced in recognition of negotiated duties toward the research and service missions of the Department. Responsibilities include teaching computer science undergraduate classes, interviewing and hiring recitation instructors and graders (typically senior undergraduate or Masters students), coordinating and supervising recitation sections, creating exams, homework, and programming assignments, possibly in collaboration with other instructors, coordinating and supervising grading, and curriculum development. Other duties, such as managing applied learning opportunities such as internships, are also possible depending on experience.
Applications received by January 1, 2025, will be given priority. For questions regarding this position please contact:
