The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) at Colorado State University (CSU) seeks outstanding candidates for a tenure-track assistant/associate professor position, with a research focus on foundations and/or applications of AI for addressing fundamental challenges within the broad discipline of Electrical and Computer Engineering. The opening is part of an AI cluster tenure-track faculty search by CSU's Walter Scott Jr College of Engineering. Candidates can select ECE as their home department in their applications. To ensure full consideration applications must be received by January 5, 2025. 

Example areas of interest within ECE include foundations and applications of AI for radars, satellites, remote sensing, and climate science; high-power lasers and photonics; biomedical imaging and image processing; networking, cyber-physical systems, and embedded/IoT systems; high-performance computing; control, signal processing, and robotics. The Department has world-renowned programs and facilities in weather radar, remote sensing, and high-power lasers. The department has been a leader in two NSF engineering research centers in these areas. It houses state-of-the-art CSU-CHILL and CSU Sea-Pol weather radar facilities and the high-power ALEPH laser facility, generating large volumes of real data that can be used to facilitate applications of AI in remote sensing and high energy lasers. The Department is also the lead institution of LaserNetUs and will soon break ground on a $150M laser center in collaboration with Marvel Fusion. The Department has strong AI-related research programs in developing next-generation computing, networking, cyber-physical systems, and embedded/IoT systems for engineering efficient, sustainable, and ethical solutions. These efforts are further supported by strong research groups on the foundations and applications of AI in control, signal processing, biomedical imaging, and robotics. The Department has 23 tenured and tenure-track faculty members, 400+ undergraduate students, and 150+ graduate students. Many of the faculty members hold courtesy appointments in the departments of Computer Science, Mathematics, Physics, and Statistics, and collaborate with faculty in these and other departments. The Department boasts one Fellow of the National Academy of Engineering, one Fellow of the National Academy of Inventors, and a large fraction of IEEE Fellows among its full professors.
