Fulton Schools of Engineering<https://engineering.asu.edu/> at Arizona State University (ASU)<https://www.asu.edu/> and the School of Computing and Augmented Intelligence (SCAI) seek applicants for a tenure-track or tenured faculty position in the area of “Operations Research for Social Good.” SCAI, one of the eight Fulton Schools, houses a vibrant Industrial Engineering and Computer Science research community. Our Industrial Engineering graduate program ranks 19th among all U.S. engineering schools (USN&WR). Learn more at https://engineering.asu.edu/rankings/. We seek applicants who complement our abilities in these areas to solve grand challenges as part of a community of experts. Particular areas of interest include, but are not limited to, scientists and engineers with research into optimization methods, applied probability and statistics, and stochastic modeling to support policy and decision making in socially critical contexts. Desired applicants work on the design and application of operations research methodology to assist various important societal problems including, but not limited to, healthcare, government, addiction, criminal justice, drug discovery, social media analysis, equitable allocation of public resources, environmental sustainability, energy reliability. Across these applications, fairness, explainability, transparency, and reliability are key challenges to keep into consideration. Theoretical areas of interest include, but are not limited to, optimization, stochastic modeling, applied probability, game theory, and sequential decision making.



SCAI currently houses several ASU Centers - including the Center for Assured and Scalable Engineering (CASCADE,
https://cascade.asu.edu/), the Center for Accelerating Operational Efficiency (CAOE, https://caoe.asu.edu/), the Center for Biocomputing, Security and Society (CBSS, https://biodesign.asu.edu/biocomputing-security-and-society), the Center for Embedded Systems (CES https://ces.asu.edu<https://ces.asu.edu/>), the Center for Secure, Trusted, and Assured Microelectronics (STAM, https://stamcenter.asu.edu<https://stamcenter.asu.edu/>), the Center for Cybersecurity and Trusted Foundations (CTF, https://globalsecurity.asu.edu/cybersecurity-and-trusted-foundations), and the ASU-Mayo Center for Innovative Imaging (AMCII, https://amcii.asu.edu<https://amcii.asu.edu/>) - and have a large number of faculty working on a variety of relevant topics.



We seek applicants who will contribute to our academic programs, promote transdisciplinary teaching and research, and help the university to achieve its aspirations, including enabling student success, transforming society, valuing entrepreneurship and conducting use-inspired research. Faculty members in the Fulton Schools of Engineering are expected to develop an internationally recognized and externally funded research program, adopt effective pedagogical practices in the development and delivery of graduate and undergraduate courses, advise both undergraduate and graduate student research and projects, and undertake service activities.
