The Department of Engineering Cybernetics, Faculty of Information Technology, Mathematics and Electrical Engineering at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology is in discussion about the possibility to expand their scope somewhat, and one idea is to offer a tenured professor position in system dynamics.
The department is mostly focused on control engineering topics, from theory to applications, and department is made up of all engineers. They are seeking potential candidates. The candidate must be qualified to supervise PhD students, and preferably also have some knowledge of engineering issues and be able to cooperate well with colleagues working with control systems. A system dynamics person with a purely social sciences/humanities background is probably not appropriate for this position.
Anyone is welcome to contact Trond Andresen <trond.andresen@itk.ntnu.no> for further information. No decision has been made about whether such a professorship will in fact be established, but good candidate(s) may contribute to this happening.
