Academic Position in Industrial Engineering

JOB DETAILS:

The Faculty of Engineering at Universidad Diego Portales invites applications for three full-time tenure
track positions at the assistant or associate professor level to start in the second semester of 2018.

QUALIFICATIONS:

An earned Ph.D. in Industrial engineering, economics, or closely related field is required, though
applicants in the late stage of doctoral studies or with master's degree may also be considered. The
selected applicants are expected to teach undergraduate and graduates courses in Spanish; supervise
theses; conduct high quality research, as well establishing collaboration with industry and government;
publish in top international journals, and participate in outreach activities. Applicants should have the
capacity to successfully attract external research grants from national sources, such as FONDECYT.

Relevant industry experience or applied research is a plus, although applicants in their early stage of
their research careers are especially encouraged to apply. WoS indexed publications would be extremely
welcome. Applicants must have the ability to teach some industrial engineering related courses other
than their own major at undergraduate level (such as optimization, mathematical programming, logistics,
stochastic process, microeconomics, industrial organization, finance and innovation). Applicants must
have a strong commitment to undergraduate education and teaching excellence. A willingness to
collaborate with both students and faculty and to become involved in university service is essential.

The successful candidate need not be fluent in Spanish at the moment of applying. Though the applicant
must have excellent oral and written communication skills. In addition, the candidate must have
observable dedication to undergraduate education; enthusiasm for professional engagement with
students in and out of the classroom; and ability to work in multidisciplinary teams.

RESPONSIBILITIES:
The primary responsibility will be to deliver undergraduate industrial engineering courses in a student-
centered learning environment. The typical teaching load is equivalent to two courses each semester.
The research responsibility includes the application to grants with external funds, as well as publication
of articles in high level indexed journals (preferably WoS). Applicants will also be expected to participate
in scholarly activities.

build a diverse faculty and staff and encourages applications from different genders, origins and social
