                                                  and
                           Center for Research on Transportation
  
                                       Montreal, Canada


The NSERC Industrial Research Chair in Logistics Management, School of
Business Administration, University of Quebec in Montreal, and the Center
for Research on Transportation, Montreal, open a postdoctoral position
in Operations Research and Transportation.

The postdoctoral fellow will collaborate to the research program of the
Chair on advanced intermodal and consolidation transportation planning,
in particular the development of models and methods for the design of
transportation plans for scheduled, fixed-composition rail services, and
for incident management.

The postdoctoral fellow will work closely with Professor Teodor Crainic,
chairholder, Professor Michel Gendreau, graduate students, and the
industrial partners of the Chair.

The postdoctoral project is planned to start early in 2006 (end of
February, at the latest) for a duration of 12 months, renewable.

QUALIFICATIONS

PhD in Operations Research and applications to transportation.

Particular qualifications: modelling, network and mixed-integer
programming, combinatorial optimization, meta-heuristics.

Highly desirable: programming skills and knowledge of freight
transportation with consolidation.

Strong skills in English scientific writing are a pre-requisite.

Knowledge of French, or willingness to learn, would make life in Montreal
even more enjoyable.
