Meet the Team
Industrial Engineering (IE) faculty and staff make advances to improve our quality of life in various areas including production, healthcare and service. Like many scientists and scholars, IE faculty possess that excellent combination of curiosity, innovation and a sharp intelligence that leads to new ways and discoveries. What makes our IE faculty unique is the focus on the questions “why not” and “so what.” These questions break the rules to see what happens and challenge traditional thinking. In their teaching and research alike, IE faculty are committed to sharing their knowledge and discoveries to create a new generation of leading engineers. And they excel at working across disciplines in teams, institutes and creative collaborations.
