Carnegie Mellon University (CMU) in Qatar seeks applicants for two teaching-track positions in our top-ranked Information Systems program beginning in Fall Semester 2025 (starts 1st August 2025). Our most immediate needs are for candidates who can teach courses in one of these two areas: data science or the design and development of information systems. We also welcome candidates who can teach topics such as Artificial Intelligence, IS consulting, emerging technologies, digital innovation, databases, and other core information systems courses and concentrations. 

The expected teaching load is 2-2 with opportunities to engage in research independently and/or in collaboration with CMU’s researchers across multiple disciplines. Our faculty members are recognized internationally for their expertise and are dedicated to undergraduate education. A reasonable teaching load allows time for quality teaching and curricular development, research and close involvement with students, faculty and the local business and educational community.

These positions, based at CMU’s branch campus in Doha, Qatar, offer competitive salaries, research seed funds, attractive professional development support, excellent international health care coverage, and allowances for housing, travel, and schooling (if eligible), among other benefits.

The Information Systems Program at Carnegie Mellon University in Qatar offers an undergraduate major which aims to educate local and international students to meet the increasing demand for information systems skills in Qatar, the Gulf region, and globally.
