Dear Evolutionary Computing Community,
Keele University is seeking to appoint two lecturers in Computer Science
(see advert text below). We would very much welcome applications from
individuals who are research active within Artificial Life,
Computational Intelligence, Evolutionary and Adaptive Systems, Natural
Computation or a related field. Details of Keele's Computational
Intelligence and Cognitive Science (CICS) group’s research can be found
in the posts' further particulars (see below) and on our website at
http://www.scm.keele.ac.uk/research/ci_and_cognitive_science/
For those unfamiliar with the British system, a lecturer is roughly
equivalent to an assistant professor, but without tenure review: these
are permanent faculty positions for research active individuals,
although inexperienced lecturers may be subject to a probationary
period. Keele University was founded in 1949 and is situated in a very
beautiful and spacious campus in the middle of England, in the county of
Staffordshire. Keele places a high value on excellent research and we
support nationally and internationally competitive expertise throughout
the Natural Sciences, Social Sciences, Health and Humanities.
Best wishes,
Alastair.
