*Tenure-Track Appointments in Information Technology and Management *The

Computing at Illinois Institute of Technology in Chicago, Illinois invites
applications for full-time, tenure-track faculty positions targeted
primarily at the assistant professor level. Applications at a higher rank

The Illinois Institute of Technology is a private Ph.D.-granting research

to all the business, culinary, cultural, entertainment and recreational
activities that one of the nation’s top urban centers has to offer.

The Department of Information Technology and Management is one of three
departments within Illinois Tech’s College of Computing, and offers
bachelor’s, master’s, and M.S. degrees in Information Technology and
Management; a B.S. in Applied Cybersecurity and Information Technology; and
an M.S. and professional Master’s degrees in Applied Cybersecurity and
Digital Forensics. Our Bachelor of Information Technology & Management
degree is accredited by the Computing Accreditation Commission of ABET,
www.abet.org, and Illinois Tech has been designated as a National Center of
Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense Education by the National Security
Agency and the Department of Homeland Security. While nationally renowned
for our research in cybersecurity, steganography, recommender systems, and
real-time communications, a full range of areas of study in the field of
information technology are offered. The ITM Department is currently a
community of over 200 undergraduate students, over 200 graduate students, 8
full-time faculty, and numerous visiting and adjunct faculty.

We are seeking self-motivated, entrepreneurial, team-oriented applicants
who will positively contribute to our academic excellence, continuing
growth, strong industry relationships, and our highly successful research
initiatives. Candidates should possess demonstrated expertise in one or

   analysis, cryptography, cybersecurity frameworks, and cybersecurity team

on the candidate’s experience and scholarly record. Rank and salary will be
competitive and commensurate with experience. Applicants in Cybersecurity
will also have a role in the IIT Center for Cybersecurity and Forensics
