Additional Information
See our recruitment microsite https://www.nottingham.ac.uk/computerscience/work-with-us/index.aspx for more information on our School's vision, research profile, and position within university strategy. Our vision as a School is to be highly rated in all areas: Research and Knowledge Exchange, Education and Student Experience, People and Culture. We are committed to creating opportunities for people from groups traditionally underrepresented in the field of Computer Science and therefore the ability to relate to and mentor students and colleagues within an increasingly ethnically and gender diverse community is essential.
