Qualifications / Experience : --------------------------- A higher degree in a computing discipline or significant project leadership experience in industry is essential. Expertise in contemporary software engineering methodology (with an emphasis on software process models, software quality assurance and project management, preferably in a Unix environment) is required, as is a willingness to acquire the ability to teach advanced software development using the Ada language. Tenure : ------ These positions may be offered on either a permanent basis or on the basis of a three year contract. Salary : ------ Within the range Academic Level B : $39,463 - $48,688 pa. Further details can be obtained from Associate Professor D Grant on 819 8764. Applications, including the names and addresses of three referees should be sen t to: The Appointments Officer Swinburne PO Box 218 Hawthorn 3122 by no later than 9/12/91 (closing date) NB : The department conducts an undergraduate degree with an emphasis on large-scale software engineering. We use Ada as the main programming language, and students enjoy substantial team project work in their course. Students use industry standard compilers and CASE tools in their project work, and cover the fundamental ground of recent American Software Engineering model curricula. We teach object-oriented methodology, using both Ada and Eiffel. The Ada curriculum has a real-time component. There is a strong emphasis on the use of formal methods. We believe that our department has taken a leadership role in Australian universities in the development of our curriculum. Our degree is intensely practical, but does not ignore theory, and is intellectually demanding. We need to recruit staff who will give 110% in the apprenticing of young software engineers, and who will join our research programs, which are oriented towards methodological processes in software engineering. Consulting and short-course opportunities are good for staff with, or willing to acquire, good Ada skills.
