Search
for Tenure-Track/Tenured Faculty
Department of Mechanical & Industrial Engineering
Northeastern
University, Boston, MA
Data Analytics in Industrial Engineering
Guided
by Northeastern University’s strategic growth plans, primarily in the areas of
Health, Security, and Sustainability, the Department of Mechanical and
Industrial Engineering (MIE) is in search of multiple faculty members at all
ranks in Data Analytics. Application areas of interest include, but are not
limited to, supply chain, manufacturing, healthcare and human-machine systems.
Successful hires will teach both undergraduate and graduate level courses, and are
expected to develop strong externally funded research programs, possibly in
collaboration with faculty in the College of Engineering and other
colleges. A Ph.D. in Operations
Research, Industrial Engineering or a closely related field by the start date
is required. Demonstrated excellence in research, teaching, and collaborative
expertise that spans traditional as well as emerging thrust areas is highly
desirable.
The
MIE Department (www.mie.neu.edu) at
Northeastern University is a successful and vibrant academic enterprise which is
growing in both size and stature. The department comprises 50 tenured/tenure-track faculty
members, including 8 new hires since 2014, with over $10M in annual research funding, over 700 Ph.D. and M.S.
students, and a total combined grad/undergraduate student population of over 2000.
A five year research contract vehicle from the Veterans Health Administration
for $125M and a three year contract vehicle from the Army Research Office for
$20M, received in early 2015, are bellwethers of both current success and
future potential. In addition, of the eight federally-funded research centers
in the College of Engineering, four are based in the MIE Department: 1) The NSF Nanoscale Science and
Engineering Center (NSEC) for High-rate Nanomanufacturing, 2) The NSF Center for Health Organization Transformation, 3) The NSF Center for
Microcontamination Control, and 4)
The VA New England Healthcare Engineering Partnership. Northeastern University
also has a 7,000 square-foot class 10/100/1000 micro/nanofabrication facility
available to faculty, the Kostas Center (http://www.kostas.neu.edu),
and the recently opened 70,000 square-foot Kostas Research Institute for
Homeland Security at our Burlington campus.
At
the core of the Northeastern engineering education experience is our top-ranked
cooperative education program, which contributes significantly to the
integrated learning model of the College of Engineering.
Applicants should
submit a detailed Curriculum Vitae, a clear statement of teaching and research
interests and objectives, along with names and contact information of at least
three professional references. Applications received by October 28th will be considered for informal interviews
at INFORMS 2015. Applications received by January 15, 2016 will receive full
consideration. The target starting
date is September 1, 2016, but the positions will remain open until filled.
