Faculty Position in Information Systems Management The School of Engineering of the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile invites applications for a full-time faculty position in the area of Information Systems Management, or closely related disciplines, at the Computer Science Department.

Duties: The successful applicant’s duties will include teaching (at undergraduate and graduate levels), conducting research, providing external services and carrying out administrative tasks. The successful candidate is expected to join a research group in information systems. Among the research areas of this group are: business process management systems, business intelligence and performance management systems, process intelligence (e.g., process mining), collaborative systems (CSCW), IT governance, innovation and entrepreneurship within the information technology industry, e business, e commerce, e government, information security, and management of information technology (e.g., IT project management, IT operation management).

While researchers in different areas related to information systems are encouraged to apply, preference will be given to candidates working in the above mentioned research areas.

Requirements: Applicants must hold a PhD (or be currently pursuing studies towards). It is important that the applicant is able to work collaboratively; international experience is also desirable. Candidates do not need Spanish at the time of applying, but should be prepared to learn the language well enough to begin teaching in it in the short term.

1. A statement of purpose (in Spanish or English) indicating why you should be considered for the vacancy and your plans in the areas of research and teaching. Be as specific as possible, e.g., giving examples of how you aim to transfer your engineering knowledge to undergraduate and graduate students, and detailing potential collaboration networks with other researchers you may have developed or intend to develop in the future.

2. An up-to-date curriculum vitae (in Spanish or English, note B).

3. Copies of your five most recent ISI publications, if available. Otherwise, include any articles you consider relevant in the context of your application.
