*Professorship (W1, tenure track) in Visual Computing*

The Faculty of Computer Science and Mathematics of the Johann Wolfgang
Goethe University Frankfurt am Main
invites applications for the following position at the Institute of
Computer Science, which is funded by the Tenure
Track Programme of the German Federal Government and the Federal States
(BLP-TT), starting at the earliest
possible date:

The initial tenure track appointment as Assistant Professor (Civil
Servant or Public Employee) is for six years
according to § 64 of the Higher Education Act of the State of Hessen
(HHG). Upon positive evaluation, the incumbent
will be promoted to a permanent position at a higher level (W2). The
invitation to apply aims to reach early-stage
researchers. According to § 64 (3) HHG candidates should not have
obtained their PhD at Goethe University
Frankfurt or should have worked as a researcher at an external
institution for at least two years after their PhD. The
doctorate should not date back to more than four years.

We are seeking a candidate widely recognized for excellent research in
one or several of the research areas
*Computer Vision, Machine Learning, Scientific Visualization, or
Virtual/Augmented/Mixed Reality *to
complement our current team.

We expect the candidate to have finished a doctorate (with grades at
least ‘very good’, if obtained within Germany)
and to possess an excellent track record of scientific publications. The
professorship is embedded in the attractive
research landscape in Frankfurt within and outside of the university
(http://www.goethe-university-frankfurt.de
/en?locale=en). There are intensive collaborations with the Cluster of
Excellence Cardio Pulmonary Institute (CPI)
and with other research institutions both within and outside of the
university. Experience in the acquisition of third party
funded projects is desirable. The successful applicant is expected to
cooperate with other research teams and
to connect to the research topics of the Institute of Computer Science,
the Department and Goethe University.
We are looking for a dedicated academic teacher who will be actively
involved in our graduate and undergraduate
programs. Upon positive tenure evaluation, a substantial participation
in the basic courses in programming is
expected. Successful candidates will be required to participate in the
academic self-government.
The designated salary for the position is based on the German university
pay scale or equivalent. Goethe University
is committed to increasing the proportion of female faculty and
therefore especially encourages women to apply.
Applications of scientists from abroad are explicitly requested.
Severely disabled applicants with equal qualification
