Dear colleagues:
In addition to our open rank faculty search this year, we are also specifically seeking senior candidates for endowed chair and professorship positions in the H. Milton Stewart School of Industrial and Systems Engineering at Georgia Tech. I've posted the ad below. As chair of this search committee, please contact me with your questions about these positions.
Best regards,

ENDOWED FACULTY POSITIONS AVAILABLE
The H. Milton Stewart School of Industrial and Systems Engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta, Georgia, invites applications for multiple endowed chair and professorship positions. Applicants from all research areas relevant to the discipline will be considered.
Successful candidates will be internationally recognized researchers who lead independent research programs at the cutting edge of their field. They will have a strong desire and a demonstrated ability to attract external funding, facilitate corporate relationships, and provide leadership within the school, Georgia Tech, and the professional community. Candidates are also expected to demonstrate an exceptional commitment to the teaching and mentoring of a diverse student body. Along with undergraduate and graduate teaching, each position requires a balance of research and service responsibilities. Expectations of holding an endowed appointment include providing an annual stewardship report coordinated by the school's Development Office and building and maintaining a relationship with the donor(s) as appropriate.
Georgia Tech is a top-ranked research university situated in the heart of Atlanta, a diverse and vibrant city with great economic and cultural strengths. The Institute is a member of the University System of Georgia, the Georgia Research Alliance, and the Association of American Universities. Georgia Tech prides itself on its technology resources, collaborations, high-quality student body, and its commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). Georgia Tech has policies to promote a healthy work-life balance.

Diversity is one of Georgia Tech's greatest strengths and one of the major priorities identified in our strategic plan. Georgia Tech is an equal education/employment opportunity institution dedicated to building a diverse community. We believe that diversity includes the individual differences among people from differing social, racial, or ethnic backgrounds, gender, sexual orientations, gender identities and expressions, economic circumstances, personal characteristics, philosophical outlooks, life experiences, perspectives, beliefs, expectations, physical abilities, and aspirations. Each of these characteristics, both singularly and in combination, contributes to the richness of the Georgia Tech community.
