Description:

The Department of Computer Science at University of Copenhagen, Denmark is
seeking candidates for associate professorship in Information Retrieval.
Preferred candidates should have a PhD in Computer Science or equivalent
strong background in information retrieval documented by publications in
top-tier venues such as SIGIR, TOIS, WSDM, WWW, CIKM, ECIR, IPM and JASIST. 

The associate professors will join the Machine Learning section. The research
conducted within the Machine Learning section ranges from the theoretical
foundations of machine learning, to applications within a broad range of
domains, including information retrieval, large-scale web data mining, natural
language processing, medical image analysis, computational epidemiology, and
bioinformatics. The Machine Learning section is part of the recently launched
SCIENCE Artificial Intelligence (AI) Centre and of the DATA Science Laboratory
of the University of Copenhagen. 
 
Applicants are required to have university level teaching experience,
documented teaching competencies and must be able to explain and reflect upon
own teaching practice and portfolio. Formal pedagogical training or
supervision equivalent to the University of Copenhagen teacher training
programme for assistant professors is required.  
 
Duties include the applicants' own research, development of the field,
assessment tasks, grant applications, and research management such as
supervision and training of research fellows and other staff. The successful
applicant must also teach, supervise, prepare and participate in examinations,
and fulfill other tasks requested by the Department.  
 
Assessment of applicants will primarily consider their level of documented,
original scientific production at an international level, including
contributions to developments in their field, as well as their documented
teaching qualifications. Managerial and out-reach qualifications of applicants
including ability to attract external funding will also be considered. 
 
Further information on the Department is linked at
http://www.science.ku.dk/english/about-the-faculty/organisation. Inquiries
about the position can be made to Head of Section, Associate professor
Christina Lioma (c.lioma at di.ku.dk) and Head of Department, Professor Mads
Nielsen (madsn at di.ku.dk). 
 
The position is open from 1 November 2019 or as soon as possible thereafter.  
 
The University wishes our staff to reflect the diversity of society and thus
welcomes applications from all qualified candidates regardless of personal
background. 
 
Terms of employment:
The position is covered by the Memorandum on Job Structure for Academic Staff.
 Terms of appointment and payment accord to the agreement between the Ministry
of Finance and The Danish Confederation of Professional Associations on
Academics in the State.  
 
Commencing salary is currently up to DKK 473.749 including annual supplement
(+ pension up to DKK 81.011). Negotiation for a salary supplement is possible.
