Distinguished Career Professor

The Language Technologies Institute (LTI) at Carnegie Mellon University is seeking a Distinguished Career Professor (DCP) to provide leadership and guidance to faculty and staff running graduate education programs. The DCP role requires significant long-term experience in academia and/or industry at the highest levels of accomplishment and reputation. Fifteen or more years of prior service as tenured, research, or teaching track faculty at a top tier institution is a plus. This special faculty role involves oversight for a single program as well as collaboration with other program leaders across LTI and the School of Computer Science. Some curriculum development and teaching is required, possibly up to two classes a year for the program. The position goals will include improving techniques for enrollment management, enhancing student outcomes, and establishing standards for success for students and faculty. We are considering part-time appointments for the time being, with the possibility of converting to a full time appointment in the near future. Part-time commitment level is negotiable; we anticipate two to three days per week.
