The Department of Computer Science at the University of Victoria invites applications for the second offering of the Computer Science Teacher-Scholar Post-doctoral Fellowship Pilot Program. This program is designed to enhance the research productivity of the department, provide the department with additional teaching resources, and provide fellows with additional teaching mentorship and the opportunity to develop a teaching portfolio prior to entering the job market. Co-supervision is welcome.
