The Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISE) at RENSSELAER POLYTECHNIC
INSTITUTE in Troy, NY, announces a planned multi-year renewal of its faculty and mission. As part
of this renewal, we seek applications for five open positions, including multiple tenure and tenure-track

Engineering by bringing new ideas and making structural changes to create a more diverse and inclusive
discipline and department. We seek highly collaborative applicants with strong vision for innovative
research and education. Building on the department's long tradition, we seek faculty who are uncovering
knowledge and creating solutions to socially important problems, are collaborating across disciplines,
and are integrating their innovations and collaborations into their classrooms. We value applicants who
are interested in the success of their students, their department, and their field, and whose research,
teaching, and service complement and enhance one another.

For all open positions, candidates must possess an earned Ph.D. or foreign degree equivalent. We will
review applications on a rolling basis with the potential to start as early as Spring 2022. Statements of
interest and questions about any of the positions should be sent to ise at rpi.edu
