Research Economist
Department: Engineering & Public Policy
Date Created: August 19, 2009
Teaching/Research position in managerial and engineering
economics for innovation Carnegie Mellon's professional masters program in
Engineering & Technology Innovation Management (E&TIM) seeks a Research
Economist to teach and conduct research in the area of economics and innovation.
The applicant for this non-tenure track position should have a background in
applied economics. Responsibilities include teaching a core course in managerial
and engineering economics for engineers, to be offered evenings starting in the
January 2010 spring semester. The course provides masters level students with an
analytical framework to understand factors that shape an industry; students
learn to apply concepts and tools necessary to understand and evaluate
innovation opportunities. The course focuses on fundamental microeconomic
principles typical to a managerial economics course (supply & demand,
elasticities, market power, pricing, demand and cost forecasting) and
engineering economics principles for project planning and analysis. In addition,
one or two fall-semester elective courses are expected. In addition to teaching
in the E&TIM program, the successful applicant will contribute to a research
center studying technology policy issues. A wide variety of applied topics are
possible (e.g., industrial policy, innovation management, energy and the
environment, health and safety, information and computing technologies). A
history of, and enthusiasm for, aggressive grant writing is a plus. Minimum
