Assistant Professor in Computer Science

Coe College invites applications from dynamic, student-centered individuals for a full-time tenure-track position of Assistant Professor of Computer Science in the Department of Mathematical Sciences to begin August 2025. 


The success of Coe College is driven by the success of our graduates. Therefore, we place a priority on recruiting faculty that can fully engage students both in and out of the classroom. The new hire should expect to offer quality instruction at all levels of the curriculum. All areas of specialization will be considered, but a priority will be given to candidates prepared to teach courses in Algorithms and Programming Languages. Applicants that have the ability to contribute to our Data Science program would be desirable.  Opportunities also exist to teach courses in the mathematics program. Candidates should be able to demonstrate how undergraduate students would be actively involved in their scholarly activity. 

The Department of Mathematical Sciences is a highly collegial group of seven faculty that are dedicated to the belief that mathematical sciences are a necessary component of a liberal arts education. We currently offer majors in computer science, data science and mathematics with support for the study of statistics and actuarial science. The department seeks a collaborative partner that is willing to engage in a continual improvement of these programs. We are particularly interested in individuals who will bring a diverse background and broaden the perspectives of our department. Candidates from underrepresented groups and identities are encouraged to apply.

  • ABD status in Computer Science, Data Science, Mathematics, or a related field is required; Ph.D preferred.
  • Demonstrated potential for excellence in the classroom.
  • Potential for scholarly activity that can be inclusive of undergraduate students.
  • Commitment to undergraduate mentoring through formal and informal advising.
  • Must be currently authorized to work in the United States as visa sponsorship is not available for this position. Applicants must be authorized to work for ANY employer in the United States as we are unable to sponsor or take over sponsorship of an employment Visa at this time.

Please submit the following materials:

  • Letter of application
  • Curriculum vitae with documentation of your teaching experience. 
  • Statement of teaching philosophy including a list of courses that you are prepared to teach.
