I am Emeritus Professor of Statistics in the Heinz College at Carnegie Mellon. I can testify that this can be an exciting opportunity for the appropriate candidate.
Statistics Job Ad: Urban Systems The Heinz College, School of Public Policy and Management and Information Systems, at Carnegie Mellon University (www.heinz.cmu.edu) invites applications for a tenure-track assistant professor beginning in August 2013. Heinz College is currently expanding its program targeted at analysis, design, and eventual implementation of Urban Systems and is seeking to recruit faculty from a diversity of related disciplines to be key participants in those developments. Statistics and the closely related fields of biostatistics and statistical machine learning are among the disciplines targeted for hiring. Methodological work relevant to the applied areas of transportation, crime and public safety, public health, housing, and social policy, is of particular interest, though we will consider candidates focusing on any statistical research relevant to urban areas. While these problem domains are diverse, to be addressed effectively an interdisciplinary perspective is required. We are thus seeking candidates who are open to collaborating with researchers from other disciplines. All candidates should have a PhD (or should demonstrate that one will be achieved shortly), and are expected to have the capacity to be an effective teacher at the graduate level. Interested applicants are asked to send their application to the Urban Systems Search Committee at [email protected]. Review of applications begins October 15. Applicants should send a cover letter, CV, and one research paper, and arrange for submission of three letters of reference. Carnegie Mellon is an equal opportunity, affirmative action employer with particular interest in identifying women, minority, individuals with disabilities and veteran applicants for faculty positions. -- George Duncan georgeduncanart.com (505) 983-6895 Represented by ViVO Contemporary 725 Canyon Road Santa Fe, NM 87501 Life must be understood backwards; but... it must be lived forward.
