Bio

Dr. Hoang Pham is a Professor and Chairman of the Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering at Rutgers University, Piscataway, NJ. Before joining Rutgers, he was a senior engineering specialist at the Boeing Company, Seattle, and the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory, Idaho Falls. He is currently a member of the Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences Institute, University of Medicine and Dentistry New Jersey (UMDNJ).

He is the author of 4 books, has published more than 95 journal articles, 40 book chapters, edited more than 10 books and is the editor of 25 conference proceedings. He is editor-in-chief of the International Journal of Reliability, Quality and Safety Engineering, associate editor of the IEEE Trans. on Systems, Man and Cybernetics, guest editor of 10 journal special issues and an editorial board member of a dozen journals. He has been conference chair and program chair of over 25 international conferences and workshops and currently is the editor of Springer Book Series in Reliability Engineering. He is a fellow of the IEEE.

He received the B.S. degree in mathematics, B.S. degree in computer science, both with high honors, from Northeastern Illinois University, Chicago, the M.S. degree in statistics from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign, and the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in industrial engineering from the State University of New York at Buffalo.
