[General] Tenture-track position in computer graphics and computer simulation

Dear Friend and Colleague, I am pleased to inform you that our department is about to annouce a tenture-track assistant professor position in the area of computer graphics and computer simulation. These being my own disciplinary fields I am extremely excited about this. I hope you will help me get the news out to strong candidates that would be interesting in making a career here in Copenhagen, Denmark. Below is a snippet of the call text that soon will go online. Any interested candidates are welcome to contact me for more information. Best regards Kenny Erleben Tenure-track assistant Professor of Computer Graphics and Computer Simulation Department of Computer Science Faculty of Science, University of Copenhagen The Department of Computer Science ( <http://www.diku.dk> http://www.diku.dk) at the University of Copenhagen invites applications for an associate professor of Computer Graphics and Computer Simulation. The department is expanding its research and educational activities in computer simulation and computer graphics. There are excellent opportunities for working with medical applications and for collaboration on theoretical and applied development of novel numerical methods, new approaches for computational meshing, GPU programming and computational mechanics with researchers at DIKU and neighbouring institutions requiring advanced computer simulations beyond the state-of-the-art. The applicant is expected to have substantial research experience in the area of Computer Graphics and Computer Simulation. Outstanding applicants in all areas of computer graphics and computer simulation will be considered, but research areas of special interest include moving meshes, computational contact mechanics, bio-mechanical modeling as well as the application of these methods in various domains. The successful candidate is expected to build up his/her own research group and apply for external funding (e.g., an ERC starting grant). The position comes with a competitive start-up package.
