Department of Computational and Applied Mathematics (CAAM) Rice University The Department of Computational and Applied Mathematics (CAAM) at Rice University in Houston, Texas, seeks outstanding candidates for two positions aligned with its expansion in operations research. We envision one position related to the general area of continuous optimization with possible applications in data science or machine learning. We envision the other position to be in the broad area of operations research, with possible applications such as societal good, energy, healthcare, and others. We expect to hire both positions at the rank of tenure-track assistant professor; however, we will consider exceptional candidates at the rank of associate professor. CAAM is part of the George R. Brown School of Engineering, which ranks among the top 20 undergraduate engineering programs (US News & World Report).
