Job description
The Department of Informatics is looking to recruit a Lecturer in Computer Science (Computer Vision).
This is an exciting time to join us as we continue to grow our department and realise our vision of a diverse, inclusive and innovative department of Informatics at one of the most prestigious universities in the UK. We seek applicants who will support us in our ambitions in inclusivity and diversity.
As we continue to grow and strengthen our department, we are seeking to appoint a lecturer in computer vision. While a wide range of research topics within the broadly understood computer vision area are of interest, we welcome applications from candidates who have an international profile in research in any of the following areas: foundational computer vision research, robotic vision, video processing, image analysis, multimodal computer vision, machine learning for computer vision, generative AI for computer vision.
To realise our mission, we look at computer science challenges with a broad perspective and regularly sit in the program committees of and publish in top-tier and well-known venues in computer science and artificial intelligence. Top-quality research establishes members of the Department as leaders in their fields, but it is its transformative aspect that provides the opportunity to serve the society while supporting King’s as an outstanding institution in science and technology. As such, the Department has strong links with industry, which engages with us in collaborative research projects.
We offer undergraduate and postgraduate education (in both computer science and artificial intelligence), catering for the needs of our students and the industries in which they will work. It is essential that applicants have the enthusiasm and commitment needed to ensure the success of these programmes. The successful applicant for this post will be involved in delivering teaching in core areas of computer science or artificial intelligence.
The successful candidate will be invited to join one of our research groups and will have the opportunity to contribute to cross-cutting hubs (see https://www.kcl.ac.uk/nms/depts/informatics/research/index.aspx). Research collaboration across research groups, with departmental hubs and with other Departments in the Faculty and across the College is strongly encouraged.
