Description
The SuRGE (Sustainability and Resilience in Global Environments) lab at Georgetown University is seeking a candidate with a strong background in data science, systems modeling, risk science, network science, industrial ecology, or related fields, with a broad focus on sustainability and resilience. The ideal candidate combines proficiency in quantitative methods with a critical mindset-someone who engages deeply with the assumptions behind research questions and is comfortable navigating diverse epistemological frameworks. We're looking for someone who is not only skilled in applying analytical tools, but also curious and reflective-willing to challenge foundational assumptions, explore literature beyond their discipline, and contribute to both conceptual thinking and practical solutions.

This position offers a balance of collaborative and independent research, with additional opportunities for curriculum development and teaching. The successful candidate will have the chance to contribute across research, education, and the broader academic community.

Qualifications
  • Ph.D. in a relevant field (e.g., Computer Science, Environmental Science and Engineering, Operations Research, Systems Engineering, Complex Systems, etc.).
  • A proven ability to conduct original, interdisciplinary research
  • Strong background in data science, systems thinking, risk science, industrial ecology, and network theory.
  • Intellectual curiosity and a willingness to engage deeply with scholarship beyond their immediate area of expertise
  • A strong publication record in peer-reviewed journals.
  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills.


Application Instructions
The position is full-time, with a competitive salary and benefits package. The initial appointment is for one year, with the possibility of renewal based on performance. Interested candidates should submit a CV, a letter of interest detailing their relevant experience, and the contact information for three references. Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis until the position is filled.

For questions about the position, please contact Professor Nateghi at rn633@georgetown.edu. For more information about the SuRGE lab refer to: https://earthcommons.georgetown.edu/research/surge-lab/
