Research and Innovation
To meet today’s dynamic challenges, Purdue IE research is expanding beyond our traditional boundaries. Our human factors efforts are now developing a deeper understanding of cognition and decision making. Operations research is now improving computational IE and encompassing information engineering. Purdue IE manufacturing is now investigating the interplay between next-generation products and services. Production systems research is now focusing on complex systems and networks and systems-of-systems challenges.
Research Areas
Purdue Industrial Engineering research is expanding beyond our traditional boundaries. Our ReThink campaign includes the way we approach interdisciplinary and relevant research.
Rethink IE
From fostering the development of computer simulation methodology to intelligent manufacturing, we have been revolutionizing IE all along. The time has come to “Rethink IE”.
