We will be at the IISE Annual Conference and other upcoming events and welcome interested candidates to connect with us on-site.
The School of Systems Science and Industrial Engineering (SSIE) at Binghamton University's Thomas J. Watson College of Engineering and Applied Science is expanding further and seeks one (1) tenured/tenure-track faculty:
This position is sought to start in Fall 2026 (e.g., 2026-2027 academic year) and requires advanced expertise in 1) Energy Storage and/or 2) Energy Systems and Policy. However, qualified applicants in other emerging areas of industrial and systems engineering, such as autonomous systems, advanced/smart manufacturing, biomanufacturing, cyber-physical systems, machine learning and artificial intelligence, and healthcare systems engineering, will also be considered.
Ideally, the preferred candidate will have experience and expertise in one or both of these associated areas and be able to explore recent developments in energy storage and apply knowledge of systems modeling, operations optimization, integration with renewables, techno-economic analysis, sustainable materials, and recycling technologies to encourage economic growth and advance the adoption of clean and efficient energy solutions to build a more resilient and sustainable future. The successful candidate should also be open to exploring recent developments in evolving electricity markets. The outcomes of their research will help inform the design and implementation of robust energy systems, ensuring a reliable and sustainable energy supply, even amidst the escalating challenges in this domain. Furthermore, their work will drive advancements in technological innovation, behavior change strategies, and policy frameworks, facilitating the transition towards sustainable, electrified, and energy-efficient residential systems with shared aims of mitigating carbon emissions while enhancing energy affordability, occupant comfort, and overall residential system resilience.
Candidates are expected to have high potential to initiate and sustain an externally funded multi-disciplinary research program and to take a major role in advancing the research and academic mission of the School of SSIE. The position requires expertise in Energy Systems, Storage and Policy. However, qualified applicants in other emerging areas of industrial and systems engineering, such as autonomous systems, advanced/smart manufacturing, biomanufacturing, cyber-physical systems, machine learning and artificial intelligence, and healthcare systems engineering, may be considered.
The position involves establishing externally funded theoretical and applied research in the respective disciplines and teaching at all levels (undergraduate courses through advanced graduate courses).
The ideal candidates must have (i) an earned doctorate in industrial engineering, systems science, or other related disciplines, (ii) excellent leadership skills, and (iii) superb records of research, including garnering funding and scholarly publications. Teaching experience is preferred.
The School of SSIE currently has forty-one (41) faculty members and offers a BS degree in Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISE), MS degrees in Systems Science (SS), Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISE), and Healthcare Systems Engineering (HSE), and PhD degrees in Systems Science (SS) and Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISE). SSIE also offers a cutting-edge executive health systems program in Manhattan. With about 250 undergraduate, 200 masters, and 200 doctoral students, the School of SSIE is growing in numbers and in reputation. More details are available at http://www.binghamton.edu/ssie/.
Watson College stands committed to fostering a community that reflects our diverse society to ensure that its teaching, research, scholarship, and outreach programs include and serve a wide range of individuals.
Underpinning the technical, engineering, and computer science expertise of Watson College faculty, staff, students and alumni is an understanding that diverse and inclusive groups maximize potential, innovation, and impact. We, therefore, develop structures and opportunities that improve the experience of all students, especially those who are underrepresented in engineering and computer science. Watson faculty, staff, and students assist in cultivating a community of members that are conscious of barriers to social mobility, exhibit and act on empathy and compassion, and advocate for diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI), both within the college and beyond.
Together, we learn, educate, innovate, and work toward a more just and inclusive future. We embrace and cultivate our diversity and thrive because of it. We strongly encourage potential applicants who share these goals, especially underrepresented minorities, women, and persons with disabilities to apply.
