Candidates ideally have recently obtained their PhD in the wider area of process mining and machine learning with a focus on building predictive and/or prescriptive models using state-of-the-art models including deep learning models such as LSTMs, GNNs, GANs, and reinforcement learning algorithms.
Responsibilities
-Perform class-leading research in predictive and/or prescriptive process monitoring.
-Teach possibly 1 course of up to 6 ECTS.
-Assist in the guidance of 2-3 PhD candidates on a similar topic.
-Lead or support grant writing for additional (postdoc) funding proposals.
-Supervise 4-6 MSc dissertations per academic year in the field of Information Systems Engineering and Information Management.

Professor in Information Systems Engineering (all ranks considered)
KU Leuven
The Faculty of Economics and Business (FEB) of the KU Leuven has a vacancy for a full-time academic position in the field of Information Systems Engineering. The vacancy is open to both junior and senior researchers. PhD students in the final phase of their studies may also apply.
You have a PhD (or obtain it before September 1st, 2024) in Economics or Business with an emphasis on information systems engineering or a PhD in a related domain (e.g., computer science, business information systems, industrial management, information management, …) with evidence of expertise in this field of research.
Your research area is "information systems engineering", where the "engineering" component is clearly present. This "engineering" component should not be purely technical, but also incorporates the relationship of information systems with their users (individuals or organizations). Possible spearhead domains for which there is a particular interest are the domains of digital twins, blockchain technology, technology within healthcare, cybersecurity and digital platforms, or other domains that potentially connect with various domains in
which LIRIS is already doing research: simulation, process/conceptual modelling, IoT, analytics, IS engineering, etc. As described above, for each of these topics, the candidate should pay attention to both the engineering aspect and the relationship with individuals and organizations.
For more information please contact Prof. dr. Monique Snoeck, chair of the search committee, mail: monique.snoeck@kuleuven.be or Prof. dr. Wilfried Lemahieu, dean, Faculty of Economics and Business, mail: wilfried.lemahieu@kuleuven.be.

PhD. Position on Optimization of Health-care Processes
University of Padua
I am collecting expressions of interest to become a Ph.D. student on the Optimization of Hospital's Healthcare Procedures. This project is in collaboration with the universities of Pisa and Bergamo, and some Italian hospitals.
The project focuses on developing techniques for the analysis of transactional data from the information systems of multiple hospital.
The ultimate goal is to be able to improve the procedures at these hospitals, thus treating the patients more promptly, at lower costs and with shorter waiting times.
Traditionally, the optimization is only based on the subjectivity of the feedback of the process actors, thereby ignoring the process transactional data. As a result, processes are optimized “on paper”, and not in reality. The project aims at an effective optimization, putting together data and process actor’s feedback, combining techniques from Machine Learning, AI and Process Mining.
If you are selected, you will start the project in January 2024 and complete in December 2026 (three years). You will join the BMCS Ph.D. program at University of Padua, which promotes research at the interplay between Computer and Social Science.
As a PhD. student, you are expected to:
1) Conduct research on the topics of the Ph.D. project and develop accordant software prototypes;
2) Publish papers to important international conferences and attend those conferences world-wide (ca. 2 times per year);
3) Participate into winter/summer schools to strenghten your background
You will join my research group, which consists of four more Ph.D. students, and two pre-doctoral researchers.
If interested, please send me an email where you motivate why you are interested to enroll yourself in the project (a couple of paragraphs of at least 250 words in the email's body is sufficient), and
also attach an up-to-date curriculum vitae.

PhD position in BPM, Formal Methods and HCI at DTU
Technical University of Denmark
We are opening an exciting opportunity for a PhD position in the intersection of formal methods, business process management and human-computer interaction (HCI). This project will explore how Knowledge Intensive Processes (for instance, those processes executed in a hospital or a court) can be better modeled, simulated and proved correct. During your PhD you will likely cover activities such as:
- Building or extending modelling languages for Knowledge Intensive Processes
- Build immersive environments for the modelling, simulation and verification of Knowledge Intensive Processes
- Extend visual notations to adapt to context-specific environments (for instance, in hospital or legal departments)
- Test the understandability of these tools with potential users
The successful candidate has previous experience in computer science, with a thesis or research experience in areas involving modelling, simulation, or verification. Moreover, the candidate will benefit from basic knowledge in information systems, process mining or human computer interaction.
You will be working in the Process Science Lab (https://dtu-psl.github.io/) at the Technical University of Denmark, with a strong collaboration (including extended stays) at TU Eindhoven. The approximate starting date will be earlier 2024.
For informal enquires or demonstrations of interest, please contact hulo@dtu.dk
