Assistant, Associate, or Full Professor in Operations Research and Information Engineering, Cornell Tech (NYC)

The School of Operations Research and Information Engineering at Cornell University invites applications for a tenured/tenure-track faculty position at Cornell Tech, a research and graduate education campus of Cornell University located on Roosevelt Island in New York City.

We are particularly interested in candidates in the area of data-driven decisions, broadly construed, especially optimization, artificial intelligence, applied probability, statistics and machine learning, both in theory and practice. Though the position is primarily intended at a junior level, we also welcome exceptional applicants in all research areas. In keeping with the mission of Cornell Tech, applicants must also have a strong interest in activities that reach beyond academia for external engagement and impact, in areas that may include technology commercialization and entrepreneurship, or activities with non-profit organizations, government and policy issues, international programs, or pre-college (K-12) education. Applicants for senior positions should have a demonstrated track record of such external engagement.

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. The successful candidate will be a full member of the ORIE faculty, sharing the same rights and responsibilities as their Ithaca-based colleagues, with teaching and primary service responsibilities at Cornell Tech.

Cornell Tech's academic environment encourages tight integration across disciplines in technology, business, law, and design, couples fundamental research with practice, and supports societal and commercial ventures alongside research and education. In addition to world-class academic research, a distinguishing characteristic of our work is that it engages deeply with external communities, organizations, and industry to address real-world problems and contexts that amplify the direct societal and commercial impact of our research. Hubs in Health Tech, Urban Tech, and Public Interest Tech exemplify this approach, bringing together researchers, practitioners and communities to collaborate.

A complete application should include a cover letter, CV, statements of teaching and research interests, sample publications, at least three reference letters, and, for junior applicants, a doctoral transcript.

Consistent with Cornell’s practice, appointment to academic positions requires candidates to disclose relevant information about their prior employment including whether they have been found to have violated institutional or employer policies related to or governing unlawful discrimination and harassment, academic and research misconduct, or financial misconduct.

Pay Ranges: $79,400 to $329,600
