Dear all,

Attached is a Postdoctoral position that may be of interest to the SD community.

best regards
Jim Duggan.

SFI-funded Postdoctoral Researcher - System Dynamics
Department of Information Technology,
National University of Ireland, Galway

The System Dynamics Research Group at NUI Galway seeks a suitably qualified
candidate to work as a Postdoctoral Researcher on a Science Foundation
Ireland funded project ""Computational Methods for Modelling Complex Dynamic
Systems"". The goal of this project is to advance the underlying science of
system dynamics simulation, through the design of innovative simulation
methods which will enhance our ability to model, and to understand, the
dynamics of complex systems.

The ideal candidate will have an excellent understanding of System Dynamics
(e.g. system archetypes, feedback structures, qualitative modelling,
quantitative modeling), significant experience in designing numerical or
agent-based simulators, and have a thorough working knowledge of methods for
simulating social and organizational systems. As the work will also involve
applied research with industrial partners on practical simulation projects
(i.e. manufacturing supply chains and/or software project management),
previous industry experience and excellent inter-personal skills are required.

Minimum qualifications include a Ph.D., or about to receive a Ph.D., in
Computer Science, System Dynamics, Simulation or Operations Research. Work
will commence on 1 January 2008, or as soon as possible thereafter. Funding
for this post is available for 4 years. The starting salary will be at point
1 of the NUI Galway Postdoctoral Researcher Salary Scale - EUR38,623.

To Apply: Please e-mail (in pdf format) a short research statement, resume,
list of publications, the names and contact details of three referees, and
copies of two recent publications (preprints or reprints) to
jim.duggan@nuigalway.ie.

Informal enquiries about this post may be made to Dr Jim Duggan, 353-91-493336 or
jim.duggan@nuigalway.ie.

Closing date for receipt of applications is Wednesday December 5th 2007, at 5PM.
