School of Information Management and Systems

The School of Information Management and Systems (SIMS) at the  
University of California-Berkeley invites applications for a tenure- 
track position at the Assistant Professor level beginning in fall  
2006. Applicants should have received, or be about to receive, a  
doctoral degree in a related discipline or professional field.

SIMS is the most recently formed school on the Berkeley campus. We  
are an interdisciplinary professional school that graduates master's  
students who work in human-computer interaction, document  
engineering, project and product management, management consulting,  
information architecture, web services, and library and information  
services. Graduates of our PhD program are teaching in places such as  
the Heinz School of Public Policy and Management at Carnegie Mellon  
University and the Berkman Center for Internet and Society at Harvard  
Law School. We have also started to offer undergraduate courses in  
fields such as search and new media.

Our faculty members come from diverse fields, including political  
science, sociology, economics, law, computer science, and information  
science. We share the commitment to building a new field of  
scholarship and practice that addresses the design of new genres of  
information and media, information policy and ethics, and the  
relationships among information/ information systems and individuals,  
organizations, and society. Candidates should possess appropriate  
expertise and demonstrated research excellence and be committed to  
working in a multidisciplinary setting. Relevant professional  
experience is also desirable. Fields of research include, but are not  
limited to:

• Information design and architecture;
• User-centered design of information systems and services;
• Relationships among information, information technology,  
information systems, and individuals, organizations, and society;
• Information assurance, including the quality, security, and privacy  
of information;

The successful applicant will be expected to establish a quality  
research program and to teach both graduate and undergraduate courses  
in his/her area of specialty as well as to provide service to the  
School and University. Applications should include a CV, select  
papers, short statements of teaching and research interests, and  
three letters of recommendation (refer potential reviewers to the UC
