Assistant/ Associate/ Full Professor – Electrical Engineering & Computer Sciences

The University of California, Berkeley invites applications for two approved tenure-track positions at the Assistant Professor level and one approved open-rank position at the Assistant/Associate/Full Professor level in Electrical Engineering & Computer Sciences (EECS). The successful candidates will join one of the strongest research and instructional programs in the world, with joint appointments with department-affiliated institutes and initiatives, or other UC Berkeley departments also considered. The department seeks applicants from all research areas, prioritizing overall originality and promise over specific sub-areas of specialization, with a focused search in semiconductors and full-stack development of domain-specific compute hardware. Preference will be given to candidates committed to innovative and far-reaching solutions to important problems in electrical engineering and/or computer science, as well as to those whose research, teaching, or service has prepared them to contribute to Berkeley’s commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. The EECS department offers cross-disciplinary, team-driven projects with a core integration of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, extending into many other disciplines.
