Faculty positions, especially in programming languages, Iowa State
The department of Computer Science at Iowa State University
has multiple tenure-track faculty positions at all levels.
The official ads for the positions are included below.
I would note that we are quite keen on getting people in programming
languages, formal methods, and software engineering.
I would appreciate it very much if you would kindly pass on this
information to graduating Ph.D. students and postdoctoral researchers
in your department/research group. Thanks.

Faculty Positions in Computer Science
We seek outstanding applicants for several tenure-track faculty positions at
all levels. Preference will be given to candidates in parallel and
distributed computing, networks, bioinformatics, database and knowledgebase
systems, software engineering, intelligent software agents, machine
learning, and programming languages. The position requires a Ph.D. in
Computer Science or a related field, and strong evidence of research and
teaching potential.
The department currently has thirteen full time tenure-track faculty and
offers BS, MS, and Ph.D. degrees in Computer Science. It also participates
