The Faculty of Business, Economics and Informatics of the University of Zurich invites applications for
an Assistant Professorship in "Information Systems" / "Wirtschaftsinformatik" (Tenure Track) starting in
fall 2021.
We will be looking for an early career researcher with the perspective to replace an existing chair upon
the expected retirement in 2028. Candidates should hold a Ph.D. degree in Computer Science, Information
Systems, or a closely related discipline. They should be capable to cover core Information Systems
courses at the Department of Informatics (University of Zurich), and to exhibit an excellent
research track record commensurate with their career stage.
The specialization should be primarily in the Information Systems discipline and be compatible with
Computer Science research that shapes the Department of Informatics. She or he should ensure that
Information Systems at the University of Zurich keeps pace with the digitization developments in society
and economy. A strong motivation to teach both at the undergraduate as well as the graduate levels
and an interest in interdisciplinary co-operations are considered a plus.
The successful candidate is expected to establish her or his research group, raise some funding commensurate
with their seniority and actively interface with the other groups at the department, the faculty,
and potentially also other faculties within the university.
Through its educational and research objectives, the University of Zurich aims at attracting leading international
researchers who are willing to contribute to its development and to strengthening its reputation.
The University of Zurich is an equal opportunity employer and strongly encourages applications
from female candidates.
