Lancaster's School of Computing and Communications integrates the University's long-established research and teaching activities in Computer Science and Communications Engineering.  As part of an investment programme that has already seen us create seven new posts in 2011/12, we now wish to appoint a new lectureship (equivalent to assistant professor in North America) in Cyber-security. Indicative areas include cybersecurity, digital forensics, identity management, privacy management; we particularly encourage those interested in novel engineering methodologies and tools related to these security domains. Note however that we are happy to consider strong applications outside of these areas.



For context, the School's research spans the following general areas: Communications and Networking, Computer Systems, Intelligent Systems, Software Engineering and Human-Computer Interaction.  We value research that cuts across traditional research fields and encourage multidisciplinary research with high impact.  Our work is applied across a wide range of domains including energy, transport, cyber crime and social computing.



The school is internationally renowned for its multi-disciplinary research in cyber-security. We have substantial critical mass in this area, including 9 full-time members of academic staff (professors, senior lecturers and lecturers), 5 post-doctoral researchers, 2 research fellows and 15 PhD students. Our research is conducted in close collaborations with a number of national and international governmental and industry organisations interested in protecting individuals, organisations and society-at-large from the threats posed by cyber-security.



Teaching is equally important to us, and we expect all candidates to be committed teachers and to contribute to the development of our portfolio of courses, including our international partnerships.



Candidates will demonstrate significant promise in their research discipline and a strong record of achievement in their career to date.  Salary levels will range from £31,020 to £44,166 depending on achievements and experience to date.



If you are interested in the post we invite you to contact the Head of School (Prof. Geoff Coulson) for an informal discussion (geoff at comp.lancs.ac.uk<mailto:geoff at comp.lancs.ac.uk>; +1524 510306).



Note that this position in one of 5 currently being advertised. The full set comprises a Chair in Communication/ Networking, and Lectureships in i) Social Computing, ii) Software Engineering, iii) Cyber-security and iv) Communication Systems. We are happy to consider well-qualified candidates outside these areas: in such cases we ask that you apply for the named position that is closest to your area.
