Founded in 2019 and housed in an iconic 19-story building, CDS is a university-wide academic unit created to connect BU's 17 schools and colleges through the language of computation and data and to lay the foundation for innovation-driven, civic-minded computing, data science, and AI. Building on BU's founding mission of equal access, including being first in the nation to admit women to medical school, to graduate a Native American physician, and to award a PhD to a woman, CDS is committed to building a culturally, racially, and ethnically diverse scholarly community and to increasing participation of all talented students, especially women and other groups who are underrepresented in Computing and Data Sciences. Our university community welcomes differences, encourages open-minded exploration, and upholds freedom of expression.
Required Skills
BU expects excellence in teaching and in research, qualifications required of all applicants include a PhD in a discipline relevant to foundational or use-inspired computing research; a strong record of research; a demonstrated capacity for collaboration; and a commitment to innovation in teaching at the undergraduate and graduate levels.
Applications can be submitted through the web portal at https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/28499. Priority will be given to candidates who submit their application by December 1, 2024 but consideration and review of applications will continue on a rolling basis until April 30, 2025.
BU conducts a background check on all final candidates for certain faculty and staff positions. The background check includes contacting the final candidate's current and previous employer(s) to ask whether, in the last seven years, there has been a substantiated finding of misconduct violating that employer's applicable sexual misconduct policies. To implement this process, the University requires a final candidate to complete and sign the form entitled “Authorization to Release Information” after execution of an offer letter.
We are an equal opportunity employer, and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, natural or protective hairstyle, religion, sex, age, national origin, physical or mental disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, genetic information, military service, pregnancy or pregnancy-related condition, or because of marital, parental, or veteran status.

Organization
The Difference Is Our DNA
What compelled the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to award Boston University a grant to fight newborn mortality in Zambia? Why did Martin Luther King, Jr. adopt BU as a place where he could hone his message of justice and equality? And what is the catalyst that prompts 32,557 students from 135 countries to call BU their home every semester? It’s in our DNA: an inherent desire in each of our students, faculty, and staff to vigorously and dauntlessly pursue knowledge—and embrace the unlimited possibilities that come with it.
A Community Unlike Any Other
As you can see below, it takes people, ideas, and a little luck (Boston, you’re our town) to make BU what it is today: one of the most dynamic universities in the world.
Celebrated thinkers: On any given day, students will find themselves mesmerized by Nobel Prize winners, a poet laureate, and the first biomedical engineer ever to receive a MacArthur Foundation “Genius Award,” among others.
Extraordinary teaching: When a classroom starts to percolate with new ideas, it’s because our faculty of scholars and accomplished practitioners know how to ignite students’ imaginations. That’s why we reward our best teachers with BU’s most prestigious honor: The Metcalf Cup and Prize.
Groundbreaking research: With faculty dedicated to a creative, interdisciplinary approach to problem solving, BU has become a leading global research institution—propelled forward by over $350 million a year in sponsored program revenue.
World-class students: Elite students from all 50 states and 135 countries pursue higher education on BU campuses in Boston and at programs in L.A., D.C., and more than 30 other cities on six continents.
A city within a city: Today, 80% of our undergrads live on campus, which could explain the 525 student activity groups alone.
The greatest college town in the world: Boston. ’Nuff said.
