The position as professor is a permanent faculty post, part of the division of Management Science. The position is also part of the Centre for Optimization Technology for Clinical Pathways co-funded by DTU and Region Zealand. You will be affiliated with Slagelse Hospital, where you will be offered the opportunity to work physically in the clinic. The position will provide you the opportunity to contribute significantly to establishing stronger ties between the theories and methods of decision science and the challenges met within the healthcare system. Attached to the position is also a PhD grant to support the research collaboration. Responsibilities and qualifications Healthcare systems are highly complex production systems calling for efficient planning of physical as well as human resources to offer the best possible care for patients. Such production systems cover the end-to-end logistics chain spanning the pre-hospital, the inpatient and the outpatient phases. An increase in the number of patients in healthcare systems combined with tight budgetary constraints demands a more efficient use of resources. To address the increasing challenges from short-term hospitalization, resource optimization, clinical specialization, and increased demand for specialized medical treatment in hospitals, the focus will be on the design of methods and technologies for optimising clinical pathways, including clinical workflows, clinical logistics, patient scheduling, staff scheduling, as well as the design and pilot testing of technologies for optimized coordination and communication. Scientifically, experience within the following areas is relevant: Computer-aided decision support for clinical pathways, healthcare planning and clinical logistics. Methods from Operations Research and Operations Management for studying clinical optimization problems. Design and implementation of simulation-based methods like discrete-event, agent-based models and system dynamics. Data science and AI methods for resource optimization—deterministic as well as dynamic and stochastic. Management Science considers it a strength to combine development of new theory with focus on real-life applications. The division is team-oriented, and the professor is expected to support this through peer activities. This position requires strong experience with interdisciplinary academic work. You will therefore bring the following: A PhD in technical or natural sciences incorporating management science (operations research and/or operations management). A high level of original scientific production at the highest international level that has contributed to further development of the subject area in question.
