the Sustainable Development Track at the IISE Annual Conference & Expo 2025. The SDD encourage you to contribute to the Conference and Track by submitting a 250-word abstract or presentation summary. Teh SDD is interested in research, case studies, workshops,
etc. that include the application of industrial and systems engineering methods in support of environmental, community, or corporate and non-profit sustainability. We welcome presentations identifying how ISEs can take or have taken a leadership role in Sustainable Development,
guiding and inspiring those interested in a similar career, as well as presentations identifying areas where ISE technologies and methods need to be improved or expanded to incorporate social and environmental factors in addition to economic optimization.
There is also great interest in the potential effect of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on sustainable development.</span></p>
