[Infovis] Faculty Positions at Tufts University

[Remco Chang]

Hi everyone,

Tufts University has one tenure-track faculty position in HCI-VIS where I'm
the search committee chair. We also have a (non-tenure track) teaching
professor position in AI where the ability to teach the Intro to AI course
is required. Still, we're generally interested in people who can teach
courses for our new MS in AI program, including Big Data, ML, NLP,
Statistics, etc.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me.

p.s., Tufts is located in the Boston area. We're 2 subway stops away from
Harvard, 2 additional stops from MIT, and (on the new Green Line), 30
minutes from Northeastern, Boston University, and Boston College.
