Department of Engineering Science, Parks Road, Oxford The Department of Engineering Science intends to appoint an Associate Professor of Engineering Science (Information Engineering) from 1st October 2025 or as soon as possible thereafter. The successful candidate will work at the Department of Engineering Science, based at the Oxford e-Research Centre (Keble Road, OX1 3QG), and will be offered a Tutorial Fellowship at Keble College under arrangements described in the Job Description. The combined University and College salary will be on a scale currently from £55,755 to £74,867 per annum plus additional benefits (see the Job Description for full details) that include a housing allowance of £11,788 p.a. The appointment will be initially for five years at which point, upon completion of a successful review, the post-holder will be eligible for reappointment to the retiring age. This appointment will strengthen the Department’s research in the fast-growing area of Information Engineering. The successful candidate will conduct original research in the field of Information Engineering and its applications. We are particularly interested in candidates with a research focus on Digital Twins, which is broadly understood to be at the intersection of large scale compute, modelling, trust, in the loop simulation, world models and Artificial Intelligence (AI). We welcome applicants who are working on any of these themes from both theoretical and systems perspectives in any discipline. The successful candidate will have a doctorate in Information Engineering or a cognate discipline. They will have a proven research track record witnessed by peer reviewed publications and other research outputs, as well as research and/or infrastructure grants, stakeholder collaborations, and relevant teaching experience. They will have the ability to teach effectively, both at undergraduate and graduate levels, and have excellent interpersonal skills for undertaking tutorial teaching. The successful candidate will be expected to take part in the teaching of undergraduate courses in the Department of Engineering Science, which may include lectures, taught classes, practical laboratories, and the supervision of undergraduate design and project work; and tutorial teaching and academic care of students in Keble College, where they will also be a trustee and will play a role in the governance of the college. They will also be expected to contribute to the department’s research portfolio in information engineering, obtaining external funding to enable development of a new and independent research programme. For those invited to interview, the department can provide accommodation and will cover reasonable travel expenses and reasonable additional caring costs incurred as a result of attending the interview (within agreed policy limits). Applications are particularly welcome from women and black and minority ethnic candidates who are under-represented in academic posts in Oxford.
