    The School of Industrial and Systems Engineering (ISE) at the University of Oklahoma invites applications for a tenure track position at the assistant professor level beginning in August 2019. We seek a passionate individual who will contribute to the growing research in health care and biomedical systems at our university. We are really excited about announcing a position in the area of Human Technology and Health Systems. We are looking forward to talking with all who are interested, at the INFORMS annual meeting in Phoenix.  Several of our faculty will be in attendance, and so please look us up. The announcement attached provides additional details.

    The desired research and teaching areas of interest include fundamental tools and methods in human systems engineering, manufacturing systems, operations research, analytics, and systems engineering.  Primary (applied) area of interest includes human technology frontiers with emphasis given to topics in health and medical systems in the area of solutions/technology that monitors/transforms/improves human health behavior and status.  Some examples are wearables, telehealth, telemedicine, sensors and sensor integrated health systems, human-robot interaction, augmented and assisted human performance, and human-in-the-loop systems.
