The Department of Industrial Engineering (IE) invites applications for tenure / tenure-track faculty positions at the assistant professor rank starting in August 2022. The College of Engineering, Computing and Applied Sciences at Clemson University is building strategic, cross-disciplinary faculty clusters to advance research and education in several thrusts. These positions are part of the AI cluster in Health Innovation & Human Performance, whose members will leverage their expertise in AI, machine learning, cybersecurity, autonomy, sensing, and analytics in collaborative research pursuits with faculty across and beyond the College. Transformative AI/ML systems and applications call for novel solutions that span perception of the physical world, processing of diverse genres of data, decision making, controlling physical devices and systems, and interacting with human and society. With its cross-disciplinary focus, joint appointments with multiple departments are encouraged for positions in this cluster. Successful candidates will demonstrate experience in driving high-impact interdisciplinary research in AI/ML systems and applications.

 

We are specifically seeking candidates with strong methodological background in areas such as human-AI partnership, human-systems integration, human performance modeling, data analytics, and the interface of operations research and AI/ML. The expected rank is assistant professor, but applicants with outstanding records of accomplishments will be considered at the rank of associate professor.

 

The Department of Industrial Engineering currently has 23 full-time faculty members with additional growth expected over the next few years. We have a student population of over 550 undergraduate students, 100 M.S. students, and 40 Ph.D. students. Furthermore, our online Master of Engineering (MEng) program has over 80 enrolled students.
