ESD Faculty Position

MIT Engineering Systems Division

 

The MIT Engineering Systems Division (ESD) invites applications for a tenure
track faculty position.  

 

This position will focus on applying engineering systems methodologies to
address challenges in complex systems, with emphasis on the healthcare
system, broadly defined as encompassing the continuum from
diagnostic/therapeutic product innovation through care delivery.  Examples
of additional relevant types of expertise include health outcomes and
quality, risk analysis and decision-making, information technology,
operations and logistics, economics, statistics and/or services research,
and the development/implementation of biomedical devices and systems, as
well as other healthcare innovations.

 

This faculty member will develop a significant research program and teach
related courses.  The successful candidate will also collaborate effectively
with cross-disciplinary teams of faculty, students and external stakeholders
(e.g., industry and government). A joint faculty appointment with the
Harvard-MIT Health Sciences and Technology Division will also be considered.

Applicants with an advanced degree in engineering are strongly encouraged.
Applicants should have a PhD and additional academic and/or real world
experience in the healthcare industry.  The preferred candidate might also
have an MD or MPH.  Strong teaching skills and demonstrated excellence in
research are critical.  

 

The search committee will begin reviewing applications in January 2010, with
a view to inviting visits early in 2010. Applicants should send a current
curriculum vita, names and addresses of three references, no more than three
publications, and a three-page statement of teaching and research interests
via email to esd-search at mit.edu. Please ask your references to send their
responses to the same email address by February 1, 2010.

 

MIT is an affirmative action/equal employment opportunity employer. Women
and under-represented minorities are strongly encouraged to apply.
