                        DARTMOUTH COLLEGE
                 Professorship in Computer Science

The Department of Computer Science at Dartmouth College invites
applications for a senior position in computer science at the 
level of Associate or Full Professor. Candidates for this position 
should have a substantial record of research in a major area of
experimental computer science and systems.  

The Department of Computer Science currently includes ten tenure-track
faculty members.  In addition several faculty members in the
Thayer School of Engineering and the Department of Mathematics have 
research interests related to computer science and hold joint or 
adjunct appointments in Computer Science.  Research interests in 
the department include parallel file and disk systems, operating 
systems, robotics, design automation, electronic libraries, multimedia, 
graphics, visualization techniques, algorithms, asynchronous concurrent 
systems, parallel algorithms, computational geometry, combinatorial 
optimization, image processing, and signal processing.   The Computer 
Science Department resides in the recently completed Sudikoff Laboratory 
for Computer Science.

Dartmouth College is a highly selective Ivy League university with
approximately 4000 undergraduates and 1000 graduate students.  It 
combines the advantages of a small liberal arts college (small class 
size, excellent students, and close student-faculty interaction) with 
the research activities of a university.  As an indication of this dual 
ommitment, research and teaching both count strongly in decisions on 
hiring, promotion, and tenure.

Faculty in the department have DEC or Silicon Graphics workstations in 
their offices with network connections to other workstations, laser 
printers, a DECmpp massively parallel computer, several mainframes, and 
the Internet.  A variety of other equipment, including DECstation, IBM, 
Sun, and Silicon Graphics workstations, is also available.  A campus-wide 
Macintosh  network serves all students and faculty and is heavily used 
in undergraduate courses and for campus communication.  Laboratories
of DEC Alphas, Silicon Graphics Indys, and Macintosh PowerPCs are
available for undergraduate and graduate instruction.

Persons interested should submit a curriculum vitae and a list of at
least four references, at least one of whom can comment on teaching.  
Review of the applications will begin immediately and will continue 
until the search is complete.  Please send applications materials
and general inquiries to Phyllis Bellmore, Computer Science Recruiting,
Department of Computer Science, Dartmouth College, 6211 Sudikoff 
Laboratory, Hanover, NH 03755-3510. Specific questions can be referred 
to Scot Drysdale, Chair, at the same address (scot@cs.dartmouth.edu).

Dartmouth is an equal opportunity/Affirmative Action employer and 
encourages applications from women and members of minority groups.
