• Broader Impact Statement
  Candidates should describe how they plan to support students. They may also wish to describe additional ways they would like to support the learning of students beyond the traditional classroom. In this statement you might consider telling us about unique curriculum design, or your own personal background, or how you broaden the distribution of your research results beyond traditional audiences. We are interested in learning anything you wish to share about you or your work that demonstrates the potential to broaden participation in computer science, or more generally benefit CMU and society.
• The names and email addresses of three or more individuals who have been asked to provide letters of reference
• (Optional) Research Statement
  Note: the research statement is helpful but not required. This is a teaching focused position, and candidates who feel that their research experience will be something that can support their teaching are welcomed to include a research statement.
