Industrial Engineering Programs At University of California Berkeley

Industrial Engineering Program At University of California Berkeley is a highly ranked program.


Department of Industrial Engineering and Operations Research
4141 Etcheverry Hall,
Mail Code 1777
University of California
Berkeley, CA 94720-1777


__________________________________________________________________________________________
The Department of Industrial Engineering and Operations Research (IEOR) educates students to become highly skilled in:
the quantitative modeling and analysis of a broad array of systems-level decision problems concerned with economic efficiency, productivity and quality;




__________________________________________________________________________________________

Undergraduate Program

The undergraduate program is designed to prepare students for technical careers in production or service industries. It provides a strong foundation for those headed for engineering management positions or for those intending to go on to specialized graduate study in operations research, industrial engineering, or business administration.


The core of the program includes: basic science mathematics, including probability and statistics engineering optimization and stochastic models This forms the methodological foundation for upper division IEOR electives involving the analysis and design of production and service systems, information systems, and human work systems and organization, among others.




__________________________________________________________________________________________

Graduate Program

At the master's level, students may emphasize applied courses, preparing them for professional practice, or may follow a more theoretical program intended for those who will pursue doctoral studies.

__________________________________________________________________________________________


Research Program

The paramount requirement of a doctoral degree is the successful completion of a thesis on a subject within the major field. Research areas may include the investigation of the mathematical foundations of and computational methods for optimization or stochastic models, including risk analysis. Research also may be undertaken to develop methodologies for the design, planning, and/or control of systems in a variety of application domains.

Phil Kaminsky


Industrial Engineering and Operations Research

University of California @ Berkeley
Currently on industrial leave (starting 7/1/19)
Phil Kaminsky is the Earl J. Isaac Professor in the Science and Analysis of Decision Making in the Department of Industrial Engineering and Operations Research at UC Berkeley. He is currently on industrial leave at Amazon, as a Principal Research Scientist. Prior to his leave, he served as Executive Associate Dean and Associate Dean for Student Affairs in the UC Berkeley College of Engineering, and before that, faculty director of the Sutardja Center for Entrepreneurship and Technology, director of the Initiative for Research in Biopharmaceutical Operations, and department chair of Industrial Engineering and Operations Research.

Professor Kaminsky's research focuses primarily on the analysis and development of robust and efficient tools and techniques for design, operation, and risk management in logistics systems and supply chains. This encompasses operational issues including the modeling and analysis of production and control systems, as well as more tactical and strategic concerns, including the integration of production, distribution, and pricing strategies, and more broadly the analysis of issues that arise in integrated supply chain management.

Much of his current work is centered on two main themes: strategic, tactical, and operational issues that arise in the operation of biopharmaceutical firms; and collaborative, sustainable logistics. Other current projects focus on the development of novel flexible algorithms for supply chain optimization, container terminal operations, efficient operation of operating rooms, and quantitative modeling of behavior change for personalized healthcare. His research has been funded by the National Science Foundation, BioMarin, Bayer, Genentech, Navis, Project Production Institute, Material Handling Institute, Toyota, and FICO.

Professor Kaminsky received his BS in Chemical Engineering from Columbia University in 1989, and his MS and PhD in Industrial Engineering and Management Science from Northwestern University in 1997.
