Description
Cornell University's School of Operations Research and Information Engineering (ORIE) seeks to fill one open-rank tenure-track faculty position for its Ithaca campus. We are particularly interested in candidates who study financial engineering, while advancing modern AI tools to have impact, both in theory and practice. We also welcome exceptional applicants in all research areas, noting ORIE's long term interest in building strength in discrete optimization.
Requisite is a strong interest in the broad mission of the School, exceptional potential for leadership in research and education, an ability and willingness to teach at all levels of the program, and a PhD in operations research, mathematics, statistics, or a related field by the start of the appointment. Salary will be appropriate to qualifications and engineering school norms.
Cornell ORIE is a diverse group of high-quality researchers and educators interested in probability, optimization, statistics, machine learning, simulation, game theory, and a wide array of applications such as health care, e-commerce, supply chains, scheduling, manufacturing, transportation systems, financial engineering, service systems and network science. We value mathematical and technical depth and innovation, and experience with applications and practice. Ideal candidates will have correspondingly broad training and interests.
A complete application should include a cover letter, CV, statements of teaching and research interests, sample publications, at least three reference letters, and, for applicants who received their PhDs after September 1, 2022, a doctoral transcript.
Applications for the position should be submitted at https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo/jobs/32633. We will begin reviewing candidates immediately. Applications completed by December 1, 2026 will receive full consideration, though we highly encourage early application. For applicants who will attend the INFORMS Annual Meeting, we highly encourage uploading a CV and any other application materials available to the link above by October 14, even if all application materials are not yet available. Applications will be accepted until the positions are filled.
