Department of Management Science and Engineering - Faculty Opening

We invite applications from individuals working at the frontiers of Management Science and Engineering, broadly defined. Management Science & Engineering is a multidisciplinary department with research efforts spanning a broad intellectual spectrum, ranging from analytics and computation to the social and behavioral sciences. We are united by an interest in engineering solutions to pressing societal problems.

Appointments are to tenure-line junior faculty positions at the Assistant or untenured Associate Professor level. Please visit our website for more information about the Management Science & Engineering Department at https://msande.stanford.edu.

Ethics in Engineering Faculty Search

The School of Engineering (https://engineering.stanford.edu/) at Stanford University invites applications for an all-ranks faculty search, with an appointment as tenure-track assistant professor, tenure-track or tenured associate professor, or tenured full professor in the School of Engineering. The primary departmental home of the appointee will be in one of the departments in the School of Engineering (https://engineering.stanford.edu/faculty-research/departments).

Applicants must have completed, or be completing, a Ph.D. in the advertised field or a closely related one. They must be leading research scholars, with a proven track record of identifying ethical and societal challenges in engineering and creating explicit frameworks to address those challenges in the design of engineered systems. Ideally, these frameworks are useful for others and contribute to a literature on ethics in engineering or engineering and society.

The successful candidate will also be expected to develop innovative approaches to integrating ethical and societal considerations into engineering courses, collaborate with ethicists and engineers across a broad problem domain, be embedded in (or lead) system-building efforts, and be a thought leader both in academia and outside. Example problem domains include, but are not limited to, machine learning models, bioengineering products, sustainable infrastructure, and algorithmically infused socio-economic systems.
