Position Summary:

The Computer Science Department at the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) invites applications for multiple tenure-track faculty positions starting in Fall 2025. Exceptional candidates will be considered in all areas of Computer Science, but priority will be given to those that can build synergies in the following areas, defined broadly:

We aim to hire at the rank of Assistant Professor, but exceptional candidates at higher ranks will also be considered.


Essential Functions:

Computer Science faculty are expected to contribute to department’s undergraduate and graduate instructional programs, pursue external funding, and publish in top conferences and journals. NJIT has recently expanded its graduate programs to a satellite location in Jersey City, just across the Hudson River from the financial district of Lower Manhattan in New York City, where it serves the vast pool of working professionals in the region. The faculty may be called upon to teach at this location as needed.
