** || Message from the Department Head
------------------------------------------------------------

The pandemic has given us a glimpse of perhaps not too distant a future where many products and services will be accessed on-demand anytime anywhere via online platforms, from tele-health and distance learning, to online shopping. I believe industrial engineers will play a crucial role in shaping this future and reimagining how products and services are designed, manufactured, and delivered.

In the pages of this magazine, you will find inspiring stories about how our faculty, students, and alumni are not only helping us navigate the pandemic but also reimagining our world for this post-pandemic future.
