Bio

Dr. James T. Luxhøj is a Professor in the Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering. He received his B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. in Industrial Engineering and Operations Research from Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University. He was a Visiting Professor in the Department of Production at Aalborg University in Denmark during 1994-95 and in Fall 2001. His teaching responsibilities have included Work Design & Ergonomics, Manufacturing Processes, Facilities Layout & Materials Handling, Engineering Economics, Production Analysis, Supply Chain & Logistics Engineering, and Advanced Engineering Economics I & II. Dr. Luxhøj is a co-author of Engineering Economy, 12th edition published by Prentice Hall. He previously served as department editor for IIE Transactions on Operations Engineering. Internationally recognized, his research interests in aviation safety and risk analysis have been funded by both the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). He is in the process of creating the Center for Advanced Risk and Decision Analysis (CARDA) at Rutgers.
