Dear friends and colleagues,
We are very excited to announce that the computer graphics group (LIGUM) at
the Université de Montréal (UdeM) has secured an opening for a tenure-track
position in computer graphics at the rank of Assistant Professor. As such,
we are looking for highly motivated, strong candidates with proven track
record to strengthen and complement our lab. We invite applications from all
areas of computer graphics and also encourage candidates with
cross-disciplinary background in graphics and other areas such as robotics,
digital fabrication, vision, and more.
If you know of strong candidates, please do not hesitate to forward them our
official announcement (see below). PhD student applicants will be expected
to have graduated by June 1st, 2018. If there are any questions, please do
not hesitate to contact us: Pierre Poulin (
<mailto:poulin@iro.umontreal.ca> poulin(a)iro.umontreal.ca) or Bernhard
Thomaszewski ( <mailto:bernhard@iro.umontreal.ca>
bernhard(a)iro.umontreal.ca).
We are happy to provide additional information not listed in the official
posting, such as details on UdeMs generous consulting and sabbatical
policies, our student population, as well as information about the city of
Montreal. Montreal is a bilingual city, famous for its booming graphics
industry in video games and visual effect productions, and its leading
academic research environments. Our graduate students do not have to work in
French, but undergraduate teaching is carried out in French; non-francophone
candidates will have support for up to two years to develop their language
skills before teaching in French.
Note that the application deadline is fast approaching (December 1st, 2017),
however we will continue to accept reference letters until a later date
(December 12th, 2017).
