Cornell University's School of Operations Research and Information Engineering (ORIE) seeks to fill two tenured/tenure-track faculty positions for its Ithaca campus. The School's strategic plan emphasizes its leading role in advancing the analytical, methodological, and modeling tools of operations research together with the potential of "Big Data" and the information revolution. Applicants with research interests in e-commerce- and healthcare-related areas of supply chain logistics, or high-dimensional statistics/machine learning, will receive primary consideration. One of the positions may include responsibilities within Cornell's Systems Engineering Program.
Requisite is a strong interest in the broad mission of the School, exceptional potential for leadership in research and education, an ability and willingness to teach at all levels of the program, and a PhD in operations research, mathematics, statistics, or a related field by the start of the appointment. Salary will be appropriate to qualifications and engineering school norms.
Cornell ORIE is a diverse group of high-quality researchers and educators interested in probability, optimization, statistics, simulation, and a wide array of applications such as e-commerce, supply chains, scheduling, manufacturing, transportation systems, health care, financial engineering, service systems and network science. We value mathematical and technical depth and innovation, and experience with applications and practice. Ideal candidates will have correspondingly broad training and interests. ORIE participates in particular in Cornell's interdisciplinary Systems Engineering Program.
Please apply online at https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo?job-481-6473 with a cover letter, CV, statements of teaching and research interests, sample publications, at least three reference letters and, for junior applicants, a doctoral transcript. Applicants attending the INFORMS annual meeting are strongly encouraged to submit all application materials by October 30, 2015.
All applications completed by November 30, 2015 will receive full consideration, but candidates are urged to submit all required material as soon as possible. Applications will be accepted until the positions are filled.
