In our Season 4 finale, we chat with G. Don Taylor Jr., Ph.D., P.E., executive vice provost and Charles O. Gordon Professor in ISE at Virginia Tech. He’s also the 2023 recipient of the Frank and Lillian Gilbreth Industrial Engineering Award from IISE. Taylor discusses his career path, the possibilities for AI in industry and academia, his love for hiking, and why he enjoys going to the IISE Annual Conference & Expo: “You’re going to make your best friends there.” We also hear some thoughts and reflections from other longtime members of IISE as we celebrate the Institute’s 75th anniversary.

Ever wanted to surf in your backyard? Wavegarden project manager Barry Stetter explains the technology necessary to engineer perfect waves across the world for all classes of surfers, how Wavegarden is more a research and development company than an engineering or a surfing company, and the company’s move toward surfparks that are completely energy self-sufficient.

In this episode of "Problem Solved," guest host Casey Spansel talks to two recent industrial and systems engineering graduates about their transition from college into the workplace: Annie Dorsey and Eva Gluck. Gluck was IISE student chapter president at Central Florida University and is now a process engineer with Procter & Gamble in Ohio. Annie Dorsey was also a chapter president at Auburn University and is now an intermodal transportation analyst for Walmart in Arkansas. The three talk about the challenges of finishing college during the pandemic, then adapting to work and learn in a hybrid setting.
