Faculty Search for the C. Tycho Howle Chair in Collaborative Computing Environments
Applications and nominations are sought for the C. Tycho Howle Chair in Collaborative Computing Environments. The endowed position will be filled by an individual who merits the rank of Professor with tenure and who has an internationally recognized record of outstanding scholarship. Preferred research expertise includes high-performance computing, networking, cybersecurity, software/data-enabled science, and ubiquitous computing; however, outstanding candidates in other areas of computing will be considered.  The person filling the Chair will hold a faculty position in the Holcombe Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering. A joint appointment with the School of Computing may also be possible. The holder of the Chair is expected to maintain affiliation and close collaboration with computing researchers across the campus, including participation in the Clemson University CyberInstitute.

The CyberInstitute is a multi-disciplinary, university-wide research initiative spanning topics that address or utilize cyberinfrastructure. The Holcombe Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering is one of the largest and most active at Clemson, with over 40 faculty members, approximately 425 undergraduates and 175 graduate students. The School of Computing includes 35 faculty members, approximately 340 undergraduates and 200 graduate students.  

Clemson University is the land-grant institution for the State of South Carolina enrolling approximately 15,000 undergraduates and 4,000 graduate students. Five interdisciplinary colleges house strong programs in architecture, engineering, science, agriculture, business, social sciences, arts and education. A faculty of 1,400 and staff of 3,000 support 84 undergraduate degree offerings, 73 master’s degree programs and 40 Ph.D. programs. An annual operating budget of approximately $815 million and an endowment of $416 million fund programs and operations. The University’s research enterprise has more than doubled over a 10-year period to its current level of $187 million in annual external awards. Research and economic development activities are enhanced by public-private partnerships at three innovation campuses and six research and education centers located throughout South Carolina.

Today, Clemson University is ranked 25th among national public universities by U.S. News & World Report, and remains true to its roots as a science- and engineering-oriented research university with a strong commitment to teaching and student success. Clemson University is described by students and faculty as an inclusive, student-centered community characterized by high academic standards, a culture of collaboration, school spirit and a competitive drive to excel.

Applicants must have an earned doctorate in computer engineering, computer science, electrical engineering, or a closely related field.
