[Iefac.list] Faculty Position in Complex Large Scale Systems Modeling and Non-Linear Optimization at The Ohio State University

[Ramteen Sioshansi]

The Department of Integrated Systems (ISE) at The Ohio State University, 
one of the nation’s top ten public universities, invites applications for 
a tenure-track position focusing on Complex Large Scale Systems Modeling 
and Non-Linear Optimization. All faculty ranks will be considered. ISE 
offers degrees (BS, MS and Ph.D.) in Industrial and Systems Engineering. 
Its undergraduate and graduate programs are consistently among the top 
programs ranked by USNWR, as the Department has exceptional strength in 
all major areas associated with the discipline. The Department also has an 
excellent track record for industry engagement and technology transfer.

This position is partially funded by Ohio State's Discovery Themes 
Initiative, a significant faculty hiring investment in key thematic areas 
in which the university can build on its culture of academic collaboration 
to make a global impact. The successful candidate will be engaged in the 
Sustainable and Resilient Economy program (https://discovery.osu.edu/SRE), 
working with a highly collaborative interdisciplinary community of 
scholars that is taking a holistic approach to understand how production 
and consumption systems are linked to ecological systems, and how society 
can achieve more sustainable and resilient development. In particular, 
integrated assessment modeling and advanced optimization methods are 
needed to assess economic, environmental and social impacts, benefits, and 
trade-offs across different spatial and temporal scales.

The successful applicant will be expected to excel at creating and 
participating in interdisciplinary research teams. This person will 
establish a strong research program, attract research funding from 
federal, state and industry resources, supervise graduate student 
research, and disseminate the results of such research through high 
quality peer-reviewed publications. Additionally, this faculty member will 
extend current course offerings in non-linear optimization and the 
modeling of complex systems at both the undergraduate and graduate levels.

Interested candidates should electronically submit a complete curriculum 
vitae, a separate statement of current and future research interests, a 
statement of teaching philosophy, contact information for five references 
and three sample publications to the following email address: 
freitas.6 at osu.edu. The search committee will start reviewing applications 
for this position on Oct. 1, 2015, but it will remain open until filled.
