About the role
We are excited to announce an opening for a Lecturer to join our School of Computing and Mathematical Sciences.
The school’s Computer Science research is organised into three groups – AI and machine learning (led by Prof. Huiyu Zhou), High-performance and distributed systems (led by Prof. Ashiq Anjum), and Trusted Autonomous Systems (led by Prof. Shigang Yue). Your research should fit into one of these three groups.
The school leads the AI, data analytics, and modelling centre (AIDAM) which is a focal point for AI and Data Science research across the College of Science and Engineering. The School works closely with a number of partners across the university, including Space Park Leicester, the Leicester Institute for Environmental Futures, and the Leicester Institute for Precision Health, and has been successful in obtaining funding with these partners, including co-leading a UKRI AI for Net Zero hub on Self-Learning Digital Twins for Sustainable Land Management.
The successful candidate will be expected to engage in high-level research and teaching in Computer Science, with a focus on research publication, teaching material development, research supervision, and generating impactful research through grants, consultancy, and knowledge transfer.
At the University of Leicester, you'll work in a supportive environment with research and teaching mentoring. Our research-intensive university is located at the heart of the UK, where different areas of activity are balanced by a workload model to ensure fair and transparent balance between staff and different areas of activity.
