CentraleSupelec

CentraleSupélec (CS) is a top French graduate engineering school of Paris-Saclay University in Gif-sur-Yvette, France. It was established on 1 January 2015, as a result of a strategic merger between two prestigious grandes écoles in France, École Centrale Paris and Supélec.[1] It is one of the constituent members of Paris-Saclay University.[2] Ranked among the top 200 universities worldwide by QS, it has a network of 176 partner universities in 45 countries and 80 double-degree agreements. The international student population is at 30%, with 24% international faculty members, as well. It has an alumni network of 35,000 people all over the world.

The Industrial Engineering (IE) Research Department (Laboratoire Génie Industriel, LGI) is one of the 16 Research Units of CentraleSupélec. It studies production, activity, or socio-technical systems along their life cycles. Indeed, these systems are engineered by humans and must be observed, diagnosed, exploited, regulated, maintained, and recycled. It is composed of 83 people divided into 4 research groups. It's also organised around 5 themes to exhibit and encourage cross-functional and collaborative inter-group activities. Finally, the 3rd organizational layer of LGI is its set of 7 research chairs supported by companies.

The Operations Management Research Group research activities are concerned with the development of approaches, methods, and tools for designing, planning and managing systems for the production and distribution of goods and services. The goal is to propose solutions to problems appearing in real-world applications. Starting from a formalised problem description, the work is based on quantitative approaches for modelling, analysing, simulating, evaluating, and improving performances and optimising the studied systems.
