for Cryptologic Research

The COSIC Research group at the University of Leuven in Belgium is one of the largest groups in applied cryptography. We have a strong tradition in collaborating with industry and we provide an excellent level of base funding and support. We are looking for new research professors in the area of hardware security and applied cryptography; these are prestigious positions with a reduced teaching load.

Candidates are expected to have an excellent publication record. They should present an ambitious plan to develop their research area in the COSIC team.

Junior candidates can apply for a tenure track position (assistant professor); more experienced candidates can be appointed in a more senior position.

Candidates should send a motivation letter, a brief CV (2 pages), a research plan (2 pages) and a publication list by Monday June 20 2022 to Saartje Verheyen (firstname.lastname@kuleuven.be).
