The Department of Mathematics and Computer 
Science<https://www.sdu.dk/en/om_sdu/institutter_centre/imada_matematik_og_datalogi> 
(IMADA) at the University of Southern Denmark (SDU), Odense, invites 
applications for assistant and associate professor positions in Computer 
Science. We are flexible with respect to the starting date, but expect 
this to be in 2021 or early 2022. Application deadline: 7 April 2021.

We are interested in applicants from all fields in Computer Science who 
can either strengthen or complement the current Computer Science 
research conducted at IMADA. For an overview of the research conducted 
at the department within computer science, you can visit the websites:

- https://algorithms.sdu.dk/
- https://acp.sdu.dk/
- http://datascience.sdu.dk/

The ideal candidate
- Has a PhD and research background in Computer Science.
- Can contribute to teaching and advising in the department's degree in 
Computer Science. The ability to support other degrees at the department 
(Data Science, Pure/Applied Mathematics) will be a plus.
- Is interested in combining theory and practice of computer science.

We are inviting applicants on the levels of both assistant and associate 
professor, and the applicants are asked to state in their letter of 
application on which level they wish to apply.

We expect
- Candidates for the position of assistant professor to have a research 
track record that shows considerable potential. An appointment as 
assistant professor lasts for three years, and contingent on successful 
completion of a lecturer training programme and a positive performance 
evaluation, a permanent position for associate professor is normally 
opened, for which the assistant professor can apply.
- Candidates for the position of associate professor to have a 
recognized research track record of more than four years after their PhD 
and to have demonstrated the ability to direct independent research 
projects and obtain external funding. In addition, applicants are 
expected to have substantial experience in teaching and supervision. The 
associate professorship position is a tenured/permanent position.

Fluency in English is required. Knowledge of Danish is not a 
prerequisite for application. However, the primary administrative 
language at SDU is Danish and staff should therefore be willing to 
acquire Danish skills within a couple of years.
