Faculty Positions Opening

Air Force Institute of Technology

 

The Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT), Graduate School of
Engineering and Management (located on Wright Patterson AFB in Dayton
Ohio) is an NCASC accredited institute of higher learning offering a
variety of master's and doctorate level degrees in traditional and
innovative disciplines of engineering and management.  All engineering
degrees are ABET accredited at the graduate level.  The Department of
Systems and Engineering Management (AFIT/ENV) is seeking to fill two
tenure-track assistant/associate professor positions in the following
disciplines:

 

1.  Systems Engineering with a focus on rapid product development and
infrastructure systems (to include general systems theory, process and
management, systems analysis, and engineering economics).  A PhD in
Systems Engineering, Industrial Engineering, or closely related field is
required.  The successful applicant will have broad education/experience
in the application of systems engineering principles across a wide range
of organizational, infrastructure, and engineered systems in order to
bring a broad integrating approach to all department activities.  

 

2.  Systems Integration and Cost Analysis with a focus on the
application of econometrics.  A related PhD is required with a general
understanding of systems engineering processes and management,
integration of architecture, and systems analysis.  Responsibilities
will include teaching mathematical economics, graduate level
econometrics, as well as classes in the regional, public, and industrial
organization areas.  Competitive individuals will also have extensive
experience collaborating with academic disciplines across both
engineering schools and business schools.  This experience is
demonstrated either by published research or consultation on projects
dealing with systems integration.  Highly desirable is someone with
analytical experience in general decision analysis approaches,
development and the use of metrics, utility theory, system dynamics,
optimization, and risk (making decisions under uncertainty).

 

The department offers degrees in rapid technology development,
engineering management, information resources management, cost and
financial analysis, environmental science and engineering to include
occupational health, and systems engineering.  Focused research streams
include infrastructure development and management, crisis management
(battle field and natural disasters), systems integration in chemical,
biological, radiological, and nuclear response, organizational change,
cyber warfare and information assurance, business process
re-engineering, quantitative human health risk analysis, integration of
human-machine systems, and rapid technology transition.  Successful
candidates will be expected to develop outstanding externally funded
research programs that build on these core intellectual strengths.
Current faculty also find it useful to collaborate with other
researchers through various centers on campus including the Center for
Systems Engineering, the Center for Rapid Production Development, the
Center for Cyberspace Research, and the Center for MASINT Studies and
Research, as well as with researchers within the many directorates of
the Air Force Research Laboratory which is co-located on Wright
Patterson Air Force Base.

 

Applications will be accepted until the position is filled.  All
applications received before 31 January 2008 will receive full
consideration.  Applicants should send a resume, a statement of research
and teaching interests, and three letters of recommendation to:
