Position Description

Tenure-Track Faculty Positions in the School of Computational Science and Engineering 2026-2027

The School of Computational Science and Engineering (CSE) (cse.gatech.edu) at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, Georgia, U.S.A. invites applications for full-time, tenure-track positions at all levels: Assistant Professor, Associate Professor, and Full Professor.

Note: Candidates at the Full Professor level may also be interested in the concurrent School of CSE School Chair opening. Please visit the School of CSE website for more information.

The School of CSE focuses on foundational, interdisciplinary research that enables advances in science, engineering, medical, and social domains. Its primary research thrusts (cse.gatech.edu/research) include high-performance computing; data science and visual analytics; scientific computing, simulation, and computational math; artificial intelligence and machine learning; and computational bioscience and biomedicine. These foundations support creative research across an evolving range of areas, such as quantum computing, embodied intelligence, and industrial applications of AI, and the School of CSE welcomes candidates pursuing other emerging and interdisciplinary research directions.

Georgia Tech prides itself on its technological resources, collaborations, high-quality student body, and commitment to building an outstanding and diverse community of learning, discovery, and creation. We strongly encourage applicants whose values align with our institutional values, as outlined in our Strategic Plan. These values include academic excellence, diversity of thought and experience, inquiry and innovation, collaboration and community, and ethical behavior and stewardship.
