The Department of Computer Science and Wolfson College, at the
University of Oxford, are delighted to offer this opportunity for
an outstanding researcher of high international standing, who has
a track record of research that has significantly influenced the
field of computer science, and can demonstrate the vision,
leadership and enthusiasm to maintain and develop an
internationally leading research programme in this field, and to
further the academic and strategic development of the department.<br>
<br>
The Strachey Professorship is the oldest chair in the Department
of Computer Science, and is named for Christopher Strachey, who
founded Oxford’s Programming Research Group in 1965. There have
previously been two holders of this post, Sir Tony Hoare and
Professor Samson Abramsky.<br>
<br>
The University of Oxford’s Department of Computer Science has
broad strengths across the spectrum of computer science from
theoretical computer science to systems and applications. It is
one of the country’s leading computer science departments and is
ranked first in a number of international rankings.<br>
<br>
The successful candidate will be an outstanding, internationally
recognised researcher in computer science, with a proven record of
research achievement. They will establish and lead a research team
in their area of expertise and will also play a leading role in
further developing computer science at Oxford.<br>
<br>
The post is available with effect from 1 September 2022. The
closing date for applications is 12.00 noon on Monday 28 February
2022.<br>
<br>
Informal enquiries are welcome and may be made in the strictest
confidence to the Head of Department, Professor Leslie Ann
Goldberg (<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:head-of-dept@cs.ox.ac.uk">head-of-dept@cs.ox.ac.uk</a>).<br>
<br>
Applications are particularly welcome from women and black and
minority ethnic candidates, who are under-represented in academic
posts in Oxford.<br>
