[comp.software-eng] New chair of Computer Science at Birmingham University UK

aarons@syma.sussex.ac.uk (Aaron Sloman) (11/26/90)

Birmingham University (which I shall be joining from 1st August 1991)
wishes to appoint another professor in the School of Computer Science.

Only candidates with an established research and publications record and
potential for attracting research students will be considered.

Applicants from any area of Computer Science will be considered, and the
primary requirement is academic distinction, though because there is
already one professor with interests in AI/cognitive science, applicants
from other fields will have preference, other things being equal.

The post will be on the professorial scale (minimum 27013 pounds p.a.)

Full details are available from

    Mr. P.J.F. Scott,
    Director of Staffing Services
    University of Birmingham
    Edgbaston
    Birmingham B15 2TT
    England

    Phone +44 (0)21-414-3841
    FAX   +44 (0)21-414-4802

Applications (ten copies for UK applicants, one copy for overseas
applicants) should be in by 14 December, though late applications will
be considered. It is hoped that short-listed candidates will be
interviewed on 19th March.

The university is located on a large park south of the centre of
Birmingham, with academic buildings at one end, student halls at
the other and a lake in between. Substantial resources have recently
been made available for developing computer science and cognitive
science.
