Professor - Artificial Intelligence

Professor of Artificial Intelligence

A professor of Artificial Intelligence is responsible for carrying out internationally-recognised research into AI technologies, as well as leading interdisciplinary teaching within a School or Faculty of Computer Science.

Duties:

• Leading and contributing to research activities.
• Delivery and management of teaching across computer sciences programmes at all levels.
• Participating in global research collaborations and programmes.
• Advancing the subject area through publications, conferences, and international collaboration.
• Working closely with the universitys senior leadership team to enhance the global reputation of research.

What qualifications and experience do you need

A Ph.D. or Masters in Computer Science engineering and an established portfolio of high-quality research at national and international levels would be essential criteria for a professorship.

You would also need to demonstrate evidence of delivering research-led teaching, assessment, and supervision at all levels.

Leadership and management experience in a higher education setting would also be a must for academic roles at this level.

What can it lead to

Professor is the most senior academic role; however, many professors choose to move into a university's senior leadership team in the role of Head/Director of Department or Dean/Head of School.
