About The Position

The Industrial and Systems Engineering department in the Herbert Wertheim College of Engineering at the University of Florida is seeking applications for a full-time, twelve-month, non-tenure-track faculty position at the rank of Lecturer/Senior Lecturer/Master Lecturer (working title Assistant/Associate/Full Instructional Professor). This role supports the department's B.S., M.E., M.S., and Ph.D. programs, which currently serve approximately 550 undergraduate and 200 graduate students. The department is active in research areas such as advanced manufacturing, energy systems, healthcare systems, human-in-the-loop systems, supply chain systems, and transportation systems, with methodological research in data analytics, human systems engineering, manufacturing, optimization, simulation, and stochastic analysis. The position will complement existing full-time instructional faculty and contribute to the growth of the college and department. The role involves teaching, curriculum development, collecting student performance data, and managing course content for accreditation.
