Applications are invited for faculty positions in Communication
and Information Engineering at the Assistant/Associate Professor level.
Applicants should have an earned PhD degree with clearly demonstrated
strength or potential in research and must have a strong commitment
to teaching. Appointees will be required to teach Communication, Information
and Computer Engineering courses at both the undergraduate and graduate
levels and general courses in the core Electrical & Computer Engineering
undergraduate curriculum. In addition, supervision of graduate research
students at both the Masters and Doctoral levels will be required.
Applicants with research experience in the following and related areas
are specifically of interest to us:
- Embedded Systems: development of architectures, tools,
and technologies for processing information; including computer
architecture, embedded system design methodologies, specialised
hardware designs, distributed operating systems, and programming
methodologies;
- Computer Networks: protocols for wired and wireless networks,
support for Quality-of-Service guarantees, smart space technologies,
middleware, network management;
- Machine Learning and Intelligent Systems/Interfaces: for
making interaction with computer-based information systems easier
and more effective;
- Communication Systems and Technologies: modulation & coding
(with emphasis on SS/CDMA), transmission aspects of multimedia signal
processing (with emphasis on source-matched transmission), channel
estimation & modelling, and wireless communications.
The Communication and Information Engineering Group currently has
31 faculty members in the four subgroups: Digital Communications,
Signal Processing, Computer Networks and Computer Systems. Opportunities
therefore exist for exceptionally strong applicants to establish credible
and exciting research programmes as well as to collaborate with current
faculty members in the target areas of interest.
The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering has a 100-member
teaching staff, 700 graduate students, and admits 430 beginning undergraduate
students to the B.Eng. (Electrical) programme each year. It also offers
a Computer Engineering programme at the undergraduate level, which
admits 100 students each year. Excellent teaching and research facilities
are available. Opportunities exist for collaborative research with
other faculty departments, national research institutes and the university
hospital. Substantial research funding is available from the University,
Ministry of Education and the National Science and Technology Board
of Singapore.
Starting rank and salary will depend on qualifications and experience.
Initial appointment will be on a renewable three-year contract. Appointees
will be eligible for tenure after serving two contracts. Subsidised
accommodation and gratuity on completion of contract are available
where applicable.
