Position description

The University of California, Berkeley invites applications for approved teaching-track positions in Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences at the Assistant and Associate / Full Teaching Professor levels.

Rank will be determined based on qualifications and experience. There are two positions available, one at the Assistant Teaching Professor rank and one open-rank position (Assistant, Associate or Full).

Teaching Professors are full members of the academic senate and are eligible for Security of Employment, equivalent to tenure.

The responsibilities of Teaching Professors emphasize teaching courses and contributing to the teaching mission of the department.

Teaching Professors are also expected to maintain an active program of educational and / or disciplinary scholarship, and to contribute to department service as senate faculty.

We seek candidates who have demonstrated that they are promising or established computer science and / or data science educators and who are interested in a teaching-focused career.

Applicants should be excited about the opportunity to teach large courses.

The Assistant Teaching Professor position is in Computer Science within the EECS department. The open-rank position will also start in Computer Science and will participate in teaching and course development for the Data Science Major, an innovative group major offered by the EECS and Statistics faculty, with participation from colleagues across campus.

As Berkeley's first new college in more than 50 years, CDSS is in an exciting growth phase. Candidates will have the opportunity to actively shape its future through their participation in the college, including the potential formation of new interdisciplinary departments.

The open-rank position (or a fraction thereof) may transfer to such a new unit, if and when established.

About the Department : The EECS department is part of the College of Engineering and the College of Computing, Data Science, and Society (CDSS).

It offers one of the strongest research and instructional programs in this field anywhere in the world. The scale and quality of our programs directly shape the computing industry through our graduates, and teaching professors play a central role in guiding this next generation.

Our key strength is our array of cross-disciplinary, team-driven projects. The integration of EE and CS forms the core, with strong interactions that extend into many other disciplines.

Commitment to Equity and Inclusion : The department is committed to addressing the family needs of faculty, including dual career couples and single parents.

We are also interested in candidates who have had non-traditional career paths or who have taken time off for family reasons, or who have achieved excellence in careers outside academia.
