Functieomschrijving

The School of Industrial Engineering is one of the longest-established IE Schools in Europe, with a strong presence in the international research, design, and educa n community, especially in the field of Operations Management and Operations Research. OM and OR are at the core of the undergraduate IE program. The graduate programs (MSc, PDEng, and PhD) in Operations Management & Logistics attract top-level candidates from all over the world. PDEng candidates enroll in the two-year Logistics Management Systems designers program and participate in industrial activities, among others with members of the European Supply Chain Forum.

The OPAC group of the School of Industrial Engineering at Eindhoven University of Technology is looking for PDEng candidates to perform a number of top-level science based design projects. The OPAC group conducts design projects in industry, with specific emphasis on:
  • Planning and Control in Manufacturing, Services, and Supply Chains;
  • Distribution Logistics;
  • Maintenance and Reliability;
  • Finance and Accounting, oriented towards operational processes.

    • Design projects are result-oriented and require the development, testing and implementation of tools or techniques that improve the performance of an operational system in practice. All design projects are embedded in SAI, the 4TU Institute for Design, and in Beta, the KNAW-recognized research school for Operations Management & Logistics.

    Tasks
    The PDEng candidate is expected to follow 10 months of courses in which design capabilities are developed, and to perform a design project in one of the companies (ASML, NWO projects, etc.).

    Functie-eisen

    For this PDEng position, the applicants should have completed (or be close to completion of) a Master's degree in operations management, operations research, econometrics, mathematics, or industrial engineering, with a solid background in quantitative research methods. Candidates should have a good basis in stochastic modeling such as inventory control, quality control, and stochastic processes. Fluency in English is required, demonstrated for instance by a TOEFL score exceeding 100, or an IELTS band of 7.0 (with no partial score below 6.5).
