The IT, Analytics, and Operations (ITAO) Department, at the University of
Notre Dame’s Mendoza College of Business, announces two open rank
tenured/tenure track positions. The candidates must have a PhD in
Operations Management, Information Systems, Statistics, Computer Science,
Computational Social Sciences, or related field.



The ideal candidate has a strong record of interesting and impactful
scholarship or great potential for such scholarship. This entails
significant publication success at premier outlets, and/or a strong
pipeline of innovative and rigorous research relevant to business
applications. Preference will be given to individuals whose research
complements the interests of our existing faculty. Candidates pushing the
envelope in exciting boundary spanning areas at the intersection of
business, computational social science, machine learning, network science,
human-centered artificial intelligence, experimentation methods, civic
media, human dynamics, and social and environmental research are encouraged
to apply.



The ITAO Department is home to a diversity of approaches and backgrounds
making for a vibrant research environment, which results in frequent,
compelling, and unique collaborative research projects among our faculty.
The department also houses the Human-centered Analytics Lab (HAL), Gaming
Analytics Lab (GAMA), and the Humanitarian Operations Lab (HOPE).



In addition, our ideal candidates will have demonstrated success in the
classroom with an interest in teaching in areas related to IS, OM, and/or
Analytics, broadly defined. In addition to its PhD program in Analytics,
the ITAO Department offers an undergraduate major in Business Analytics, a
Business Technology and Analytics undergraduate minor, and a Master of
Science in Business Analytics (MSBA) program with a choice of three tracks:
in Sports, Marketing, and Advanced Analytics). The Mendoza College of
Business is home to a highly-regarded Masters of Business Administration
(MBA) program, for which we offer a major in Business Analytics and a minor
in Supply Chain & Operations Management.



The ITAO Department is an integral part of the University of Notre Dame’s
interdisciplinary efforts to make an impact on scholarship and society
through data analytics, artificial intelligence, and
computationally-intensive research.  There are also interdisciplinary
collaborative opportunities, such as the possibility of affiliate faculty
status in other departments, or the Lucy Family Institute for Data and
Society. ITAO researchers enjoy generous allocations of resources from
Notre Dame’s Center for Research Computing and the support of a staff of
three full-time Mendoza College of Business data scientists and a director
of behavioral research who oversees the Mendoza Behavioral Lab.

are reduced for new assistant professors. The teaching load is 9 credit
hours per year. Salary and research budget are highly competitive, with
generous summer support based on research productivity.
