NYU Abu Dhabi
The Division of Engineering at New York University Abu Dhabi (NYUAD) invites applications for a tenure-track faculty position in its Computer Engineering program in the privacy-preserving technologies area of cybersecurity. The available opening is at the rank of Assistant Professor. Candidates with a strong record of interdisciplinary research in emerging areas are preferred. We particularly welcome applications from female scholars as well as members of traditionally underrepresented groups. The successful candidate will become affiliated with NYUAD Center for CyberSecurity (https://sites.nyuad.nyu.edu/ccs-ad/), which is in close collaboration with NYU New York Center for CyberSecurity (https://cyber.nyu.edu/).
NYUAD values diversity, inclusion, belonging, and equity; such principles are fundamental to the university commitment to excellence. Our faculty are the engines that sustain our inclusive environment; NYUAD students come from more than 115 countries, with no single one nationality exceeding more than 15 percent of the total student population. Likewise, our faculty are highly diverse and community minded: our modern campus is home to over 320 faculty who represent more than 45 different nationalities, all of whom bring a global perspective to their classrooms and research projects. Research is advanced by over 400 highly qualified research staff, who are likewise drawn from all over the world.
Successful candidates will receive a generous startup package, as well as renewable research funding to hire research assistants and postdocs, and will also have access to internal funding. It is also expected that the successful candidate will become Associated Faculty of NYU that allows research privileges and access to programs and facilities at the NYU Tandon School of Engineering in New York.
