<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">We have an open tenure track position (assistant or associate professor) in data analytics at the Faculty of Information Technology, University of Jyvaskyla in Finland. The application deadline is January 15, 2021. For
more information about e.g. requirements and what we can offer, see <a href="https://rekry.saima.fi/certiahome/open_job_view.html?did=5600&jc=12&id=000010090&lang=fi">
https://rekry.saima.fi/certiahome/open_job_view.html?did=5600&jc=12&id=000010090&lang=fi</a>. Applications are to be submitted via the online application system - click the blue button (Apply for the job) at the top of the above-mentioned page.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span lang="EN-US">An example of research fields related to data analytics at the faculty is multiobjective optimization with decision/prescriptive analytics and data-driven optimization
(including machine learning and artificial intelligence). These are in the focus of the Multiobjective Optimization Group (<a href="http://www.mit.jyu.fi/optgroup">www.mit.jyu.fi/optgroup</a>). In this group, we develop, implement and apply multiobjective
optimization methods, in particular, interactive methods. We work with both mathematical optimization methods and heuristics like evolutionary algorithms and tackle challenges of real (both simulation-based and data-driven) problems. We also develop an open
source software (DESDEO framework, <a href="http://desdeo.it.jyu.fi" target="_blank">
desdeo.it.jyu.fi</a>) and visualizations; and we apply artificial intelligence and machine learning tools in supporting decision making.
