At DTU Compute, we strive to achieve research excellence in our basic science disciplines, and we are committed to taking technological leadership in research and innovation. Addressing societal challenges is important to us and guides us in our efforts. We do so in collaboration with partners at DTU and other academic institutions, nationally and internationally, and, equally important, with industry and organizations. Communicating and collaborating with leading centres and strategic partners to increase participation in major consortia is at the forefront of our efforts.

DTU Compute plays a central role in education at all levels of the engineering programmes at DTU - both in terms of our scientific disciplines and our didactic innovation. As we aim to expand the department’s teaching and research in Discrete Mathematics, Algorithmic or Logic and Artificial Intelligence you should be as engaged in and motivated by providing and developing these core areas, as we are.

The assistant professor position is part of DTU’s Tenure Track program. We offer a rewarding and challenging job in an international environment. We strive for academic excellence in an environment characterized by collegial respect and academic freedom tempered by responsibility. We develop talent by offering a career mentor, state-of-the-art research infrastructure, and postgraduate teacher training. DTU’s Tenure Track is an appointment of at most six years, during which you will receive career support in the form of professional and personal guidance. At the end of the tenure track appointment you will be evaluated by an external assessment committee, who will assess your appointment to a permanent Associate Professorship. Read more about the DTU Tenure Track program at DTU at this homepage.
