The Grado Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering at Virginia Tech is seeking outstanding faculty candidates to help lead our instructional and research efforts in mathematical optimization and operations research. We particularly seek individuals with expertise in the theory and methodological foundations of optimization. Applications from leaders in any area of optimization are welcome. Appointments at all ranks will be considered. For particularly well-established Full Professor candidates, an Endowed Professorship may be available.
Applicants should have achieved, or show potential to develop, a strong program of externally funded research and scholarship. The position requires a Ph.D. degree, with at least one degree in industrial engineering or a closely related field. We are seeking candidates with exceptional potential for leadership in research and education, and strong commitment to high quality research. The successful applicant will also be expected to provide skilled teaching of foundational and advanced courses at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. Candidates for Associate or Full Professor should have a strong record of research leadership, publications, and external funding.
Applications must be submitted online at jobs.vt.edu (posting number TR0140122) and include a cover letter, current vita, research statement, teaching statement, up to three relevant research publications, and the names of three references providing recommendation letters (these must be submitted separately by the references). Details on how to prepare and submit all materials can found under "Posting Details" for this position on the website. Review of applications will begin on January 5, 2015: applications submitted after this date may not be considered.
