>
> We are looking for a talented postdoctoral researcher whose
> responsibilities would primarily include the research and development of
> algorithmic solutions and their coding for stochastic programming problems
> with decision-dependent uncertainty. This position will involve the design
> of novel solution methods at the intersection of the decision-dependent
> uncertainty, stochastic, and integer programming fields. The postdoctoral
> researcher will have the opportunity to apply the modeling and algorithmic
> development to exciting application areas, such as emergency medical
> applications and energy problems.
>
> We are looking for candidates with experience and interest in:
>
> · Computational optimization including mixed-integer, convex, and
> stochastic programming.
>
> · Coding and implementing optimization problems and algorithms in
> C++ and AMPL. Experience with Matlab and Python is a plus.
>
> · Presenting and writing up academic papers.
>
> The position will be in the Decision Sciences Department (Business School)
> and in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (Engineering
> School) at the George Washington University. The postdoctoral research will
> work under the supervision of Professor Miguel Lejeune and Professor Payman
> Dehghanian. The postdoctoral researcher will work independently as well as
> collaboratively in a multidisciplinary team environment.
