[DMANET] Lecturer (Assistant Professor) post at Strathclyde Business School (Glasgow, UK)

Lecturer in Management Science/Operational Research
Department of Management Science, Strathclyde Business School
University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, Scotland

*Please note that a "Lecturer" in the UK is equivalent to "Assistant Professor" in the US and Europe, and involves research, teaching and knowledge exchange.*

The Department of Management Science at the University of Strathclyde is seeking to recruit a lecturer in Management Science/Operational Research (MS/OR). This post is designed to strengthen the Department's research base and contribute to the University's strategic ambition to be recognized as a leading technological university. The appointee is expected to be an accomplished researcher in MS/OR and able to contribute to the department's growing portfolio of research and teaching in the area of Analytics. We seek someone with a strong methodological specialism, the ability to translate theory to practice and with enthusiasm for MS/OR. The department has a strong reputation in both theory and collaborative research, runs a popular Masters programme in MS/OR, and has a strong doctoral programme. It is part of Strathclyde Business School, one of the top ranking UK Business Schools.

The Department is a leading MS/OR department in the UK and hosted the highly successful 2015 EURO conference - showcasing the University and the vibrant city of Glasgow to over 2000 participants. MS/OR is a key area for the University in developing its Technology and Innovation Centre which links industry and public bodies with the University through programmes in Energy, Health, Future Cities and Advanced Manufacturing. MS/OR researchers contribute to each of these themes. The University's innovative approach to industrial collaboration is one of the factors that led it to being awarded UK University of the Year in 2012 and UK Entrepreneurial University of the year in 2013. The University's rapidly developing industrial research collaborations offer tremendous opportunities for MS/OR researchers.
