2019 IEGSO Research Symposium
Eight IE graduate students entered posters and presented them to faculty, fellow students, and Industrial Engineering Advisory Council members in Grissom Hall.
The IEGSO also held a Q&A discussion with five 2018 OIE alumni, Mr. Thomas J. Benes, Dr. Steven L. Dumbauld, Col. I. Milo Hardin, Dr. Kenneth J. Musselman, and Mr. Thomas P. Schmidt, and the 2019 Pritsker Lecturer, Dr. James A. Solberg. The alumni answered questions and discussed the impact of their Purdue IE experience on their career and the decisions they made along their way to success.
After the panel discussion, organizer Abhishek K. Umrawal, IEGSO Chair of Academic Affairs & Social Events, presented prizes for the top four posters:
- 1st prize – Anna Tatara, for "Rate Estimators for Non-stationary Point Processes"
