Lecturer/Senior Lecturer in AI & Cyber Security, Senior Lecturer to Professor in AI, Artificial Intelligence, and AI & Quantum
Applications are invited at Lecturer/Senior Lecturer level in AI & Cyber Security, and Senior Lecturer to Professor in each of Artificial Intelligence, and AI & Quantum. The roles will be based in the appropriate school within SAgE faculty, depending on the background and alignment of the candidate: either the School of Computing, or the School of Mathematics, Statistics & Physics (MSP), with a flexible start date to be agreed. The successful candidate will be expected to carry out excellent research and teaching in the appropriate subject which complements and strengthens existing activities within the relevant School.
