The Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technology at the Ruhr-Universität Bochum invites applications for the position of a Junior Professorship for Mobile Security.

The future occupant of the position Mobile Security represents the department in this field in research and teaching. The appointment will be at the rank of an assistant professor.

His/her scientific work should focus on one or more of the following key research areas:

- Security of mobile systems at the hard- or software level

- Security aspects of new application domains (especially cyber-physical systems)

- Reverse engineering of hardware and software systems

- Security aspects of distributed systems

- Secure and dependable software systems

A doctoral degree of outstanding quality and evidence of special aptitude in teaching are just as much required as the willingness to participate in the self-governing bodies of the RUB. Furthermore, we expect the candidate to generally get involved in university processes according to RUB’s mission statement. Beside the specific skills the candidate should have a profound didactical qualification to develop new learning environments such as research oriented teaching.

We expect furthermore readiness to participate in interdisciplinary academic work, willingness and ability to attract external funding, ability to work in teams, and the will to participate in collaborative research.

The Ruhr-Universität Bochum is an equal opportunity employer.
