What are the responsibilities and job description for the Tenure-Track/Tenured: Assistant, Associate, and Full Professor - Computer Science and Engineering position at Texas A&M University?
The Department of Computer Science and Engineering, College of Engineering at Texas A&M University, invites applications for ten full-time, tenure-track or tenure review upon hire, at all levels (Assistant, Associate, and Full Professor) with a nine-month academic appointment, and the possibility of an additional summer appointment contingent upon the need and availability of funds, beginning fall of 2027. Strong candidates in core, multi-disciplinary, or emerging areas of computing and AI are encouraged to apply. Particular areas of interest are (but not limited to) cybersecurity/privacy, database systems, formal methods, health computing, quantum computing, and responsible/human-centered AI. The department may hire multiple faculty in one or more of these areas to continue growing strong research clusters.
The successful applicant will be required to teach, advise, and mentor graduate and undergraduate students; develop and maintain an independent, externally funded research program with strong visibility through high-impact publications; participate in all aspects of the department’s activities; and serve the department, college, university, and/or profession, as applicable. Strong written and verbal communication skills are required. Applicants should visit http://www.cse.tamu.edu to review our academic and research programs.
The Department of Computer Science and Engineering (CSE) at Texas A&M is currently one of 15 departments in the College of Engineering. Many of the 57 tenured/tenure-track faculty and 28 teaching-focused faculty hold numerous national distinctions, including AAAI, ACM, IEEE, AAAS, SIAM Fellows, and ACM Distinguished Scientists and Engineers. The department has a strong and vibrant research program, with half the faculty having received NSF CAREER awards. CSE faculty have strong collaborations across Texas A&M in data science, health, cybersecurity, and national security, including through the Institute of Data Science, the Center for Remote Health Technologies and Systems, the Global Cyber Research Institute, the Cybersecurity Center, and the Bush Combat Development Complex. Texas A&M has recently invested $100 million in next-generation computing infrastructure through two major initiatives: VISION, a $45 million NVIDIA DGX SuperPOD with 760 NVIDIA H200 GPUs currently ranked as the fastest university supercomputer in the United States, and IGNITE, a $55 million AI and high-performance computing platform (arriving 2026/2027) with 320 liquid-cooled AMD Instinct MI355X GPUs to support large-scale research in national security, scientific discovery, and engineering. Together, these systems provide exceptional resources for cutting-edge AI and computing research. Our student population comprises nearly 1,700 undergraduate students (sophomores to seniors) and 700 graduate students. The department is housed in the Peterson Building, with airy modern offices, conference rooms, and lounges equipped with state-of-the-art A/V technology. More information about CSE is available at http://www.cse.tamu.edu.
Applicants must have earned a doctorate in computer science, computer engineering, or a closely related field. Candidates who have completed all Ph.D. requirements except the dissertation will be considered, provided they demonstrate clear progress towards completion.
Applicants must submit a cover letter, curriculum vitae, personal statement (include philosophy and plans for research, teaching and service, as applicable), and a list of four contact references (include postal addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses) by applying for this specific position at https://apply.interfolio.com/192732. The review of applications will begin by December 1, 2026. Applications received after that date may be considered until positions are filled. It is anticipated that the appointments will begin in Fall 2027.
