Faculty Position in Game Engineering

The Department of Computer Science at the University of California, Santa Cruz invites applications for a tenure-track (Assistant Professor) faculty position. We seek outstanding applicants in Computer Science and we particularly welcome those whose interests relate to the science, design and engineering of computer games. The campus is especially interested in candidates who can contribute to the diversity and excellence of the academic community through their research, teaching, and service.

The department has strong graduate M.S. and Ph.D. programs with approximately 155 graduate students, as well as established B.A. and B.S. undergraduate programs, and a new B.A. track focused on games titled Interactive Game Engineering. Work is underway on the creation of a new BS degree program on Computer Game Engineering. Excellent computing facilities and state-of-the-art laboratories in the new Engineering 2 building, completed in Summer 2004, support research and instruction. UCSC is close to Silicon Valley and has strong ties with many of the high technology companies in the area. Faculty salaries are competitive and opportunities for consulting are extensive.
