Tulane University, one of the nation’s premier research institutions, seeks a visionary and collaborative leader to guide a research-intensive Computer Science department with a strong emphasis on interdisciplinary scholarship, innovative teaching, and community engagement. The Chair will hold a tenured faculty position and report to the Dean of the School of Science and Engineering. They will be responsible for advancing the department’s academic mission, managing its operations, and fostering a culture of excellence and innovation. As part of a significant investment in research and faculty excellence, the Chair will join a strong university with the opportunity to harness institutional momentum, leverage numerous assets and areas of strength, and contribute to driving interdisciplinary world‑class scholarship in computing. Tulane’s cross‑disciplinary culture, community spirit, and navigable size present a unique opportunity for a leader in Computer Science innovation for social impact. The rapid growth of the Department of Computer Science – including multiple new CS faculty, a new major in CS, a new minor in AI, and over 120% growth in research funding in the past five years – makes it an ideal moment for a Chair to join the department. Furthermore, the Louisiana Economic Development Office’s new LA.IO and AI Research Institute, which has pledged $100 M+ for innovation investment, signals a burgeoning local ecosystem for AI initiatives. Tulane University is a private Carnegie‑R1 university and a member of the prestigious Association of American Universities (AAU). Data‑intensive discovery lies at the heart of research and education at Tulane and is fueled by Tulane’s new Connolly Alexander Institute for Data Science, the Jurist Center for Artificial Intelligence, and the Center for Community‑Engaged Artificial Intelligence. Tulane resides in historic New Orleans, Louisiana, one of America’s most culturally vibrant cities.
