The Department of Computer Science at Duke University in Durham, North 
Carolina, invites applications and nominations for a Professor of the 
Practice position starting in Fall 2023. The appointment will be made at 
the Assistant/Associate/Full Professor of the Practice rank depending on 
the candidate's experience. Duke has a long history of supporting 
faculty with practice-of titles who are educators, practitioners, and 
scholars, and the Computer Science Department has set high standards in 
providing a teaching and work environment in which the Practice-of 
faculty thrive.

Candidates are expected to have a doctoral degree in computer science or 
a related field. Successful candidates must have a strong commitment to 
and demonstrated excellence in teaching. They must show commitment to 
educating a broad and diverse group of students and to increasing the 
participation and success of students from groups underrepresented in 
computer science. Successful candidates at the Associate and Full 
Professor of the Practice level must also show examples of academic, 
scholarly, and educational success outside the classroom that have 
resulted in, or have the potential to result in, significant 
advancements in computer science education.

The term of an initial appointment depends on the rank, but is typically 
four years for a junior position. Reappointment and promotion are 
governed by departmental and university bylaws and guidelines that 
encourage faculty to be innovative, to succeed locally and nationally, 
and to develop new courses and curricula that mesh with ongoing and new 
initiatives. Practice-of faculty typically teach two undergraduate 
courses per semester with support from graduate and undergraduate 
Teaching Assistants as well as Teaching Associates.

Applicants should submit the following materials electronically through 
AcademicJobsOnline (https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/23302 , and 
solicit letters of reference:

* Cover letter
* Curriculum vitae
* A statement on teaching describing your teaching philosophy as well as 
your experience with teaching and mentoring, including evidence of 
teaching effectiveness (such as teaching evaluations)
* A statement of scholarly activities, which may include research on 
pedagogical focus
* A statement on diversity describing your experience in advancing 
diversity in teaching, scholarship and/or service, as well as your 
understanding of the importance of diversity and inclusion to the 
mission of Duke University
* Letters from at least three referees who can comment on the 
candidate's pedagogical skills, among other attributes.
For full consideration, applications and references should be received 
by December 15, 2022.
