Congratulations to Eunshin Byon for her promotion to Industrial and Operations Engineering Associate Professor with Tenure!

Professor Byon joined the facuty in 2011 after earning her Ph.D. from Texas A&M University in 2010.

Dr. Byon’s research interests include reliability evaluation, fault diagnosis/condition monitoring, predictive modeling and data analytics, and operations and maintenance decision-making for stochastic systems. Her recent research focuses on uncertainty quantification of stochastic systems using stochastic simulations, reliability analysis and improvement of large-scale, interconnected systems with applications to renewable power power systems and manufacturing processes. She is a member of IIE, INFORMS, and IEEE.
