The Department of Industrial Engineering at the University of Pittsburgh invites applications in anticipation of multiple open tenure-track faculty positions at any rank. The expected start date is fall 2020.
We are seeking candidates in all areas of industrial engineering and operations research. Applicants must have a strong methodological background and an interest in advancing cutting-edge, interdisciplinary research. For junior candidates, our primary search criterion is research potential. Senior candidates must have established an outstanding research record commensurate with rank. All candidates should have evidence of, or potential for, teaching excellence.
The Department of Industrial Engineering is home to 20 full-time faculty members with an outstanding reputation in a wide variety of research areas. The department maintains vibrant programs at the undergraduate, masters and doctoral levels; offers excellent laboratory facilities; and benefits from many contacts with regional and national corporations. Additional information about the department can be found at https://www.engineering.pitt.edu/industrial/.
Candidates are expected to have a PhD degree in industrial engineering, operations research, computer science, statistics, or another related field by fall 2020. To ensure full consideration, candidates should submit their applications through Interfolio using the following link: http://apply.interfolio.com/69900
The application should include the following in pdf form: a cover letter, a curriculum vitae, statements of research and teaching plans, representative publications, and names and contact information of at least three references. To ensure full consideration, candidates should apply before December 1, 2019; however, applications will be reviewed until the positions are filled.
Candidates from groups traditionally underrepresented in engineering are strongly encouraged to apply. The candidate should be committed to high-quality teaching for a diverse student body and to assisting our department in enhancing diversity.
