expected to have a vibrant research program with external funding. Exceptional senior candidates may be considered for a chaired professorship. We invite applications from outstanding candidates with demonstrated excellence and commitment in Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISE). Accomplished candidates with expertise in the core ISE methodological areas (e.g., computational science, optimization, probability, simulation, statistics, and systems lifecycle analysis) and interest in solving important societal problems (including but not limited to supply chain, transportation and logistics, healthcare, finance) are encouraged to apply. Applications from candidates with expertise in data science, machine learning, and related areas are also encouraged. Our department's search this year aligns with USC's Computing initiative, which has already resulted in a $200 million gift for the naming of the Mark and Mary Stevens School of Computing and Artificial Intelligence ( https://stevens-computing-ai.usc.edu/ that aims to advance computing research and education across all disciplines. Candidates will have the opportunity to be affiliated with the Mark and Mary Stevens School of Computing and Artificial Intelligence, with priority given to those whose research aligns with one or more of the following affinity areas: computing and (i) sustainability, (ii) security, (iii) health, and (iv) systems. We seek an energetic individual who will participate in the department's and the university's research enterprise and engage with students at the undergraduate and graduate levels. A successful candidate will establish a strong, externally funded, research program of national prominence while contributing to the core teaching mission of a top ISE department. An earned doctorate in Industrial and Systems Engineering, or a closely related field, is required. Positions are available starting August 16, 2027. Candidates should apply at https://usccareers.usc.edu/job/los-angeles/assistant-professor-associate-professor-and-full-professor-of-industrial-and-systems-engineering/1209/100736016464 .
