<p class="MsoNormal">The Department of Industrial Engineering at Clemson University will host an NSF Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) program in Summer 2025. This 10-week summer research program will focus on problems at the intersection of humans,
 systems, and analytics. We call this approach H-CORE: Human-Centered Operations Research and Engineering.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Our aim is to prepare students to conduct interdisciplinary, human-centered research to address complex social and technological problems. If you are a current sophomore or junior in any STEM-related discipline, we invite you to apply.<o:p></o:p></p>
