About this position

The Risk-Based Systems Analytics Laboratory at the University of Oklahoma, led by Professor Kash Barker, is seeking new PhD students to join their research group in the School of Industrial and Systems Engineering. The lab focuses on the identification and mitigation of chokepoints and other risks in supply chain networks, the disruption of infrastructure networks resulting from disinformation weaponized by adversaries, and various topics related to network interdiction, network optimization under uncertainty, risk, and resilience. Current doctoral students are working on projects such as disinformation and multi-layer network disruptions, network interdiction under disinformation, robust network disruptions, production resilience, and supply chain optimization for critical minerals.

The lab has a strong track record of placing graduates in faculty positions at leading institutions such as Vanderbilt University, Iowa State University, Mississippi State University, and the University of Oxford. Prospective students should have or be completing a master's degree in a relevant field, with a strong background in industrial engineering, systems engineering, operations research, or related disciplines. The opportunity is especially suited for students coming from US institutions.

While specific funding details are not provided, interested candidates are encouraged to contact Professor Kash Barker directly for more information. The lab offers a collaborative environment focused on making processes and systems better through advanced analytics and risk-based approaches. For more information about the lab and its research, visit www.ou.edu/systemslab.

Funding details

No explicit funding details are provided in the post. Prospective students are encouraged to contact the supervisor for more information regarding funding and support.

What's required

Applicants should have or be completing a master's degree (MS) in a relevant field, preferably from a US institution.
