I see from Anna Nagurney’s blog that three operations research people have been elected to the National Academy of Engineering:
This group includes INFORMS (Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences) members: Dr. Cynthia Barnhart, the Associate Dean of Engineering at MIT, Dr. Hau Lee, of the Stanford Graduate School of Business, and the former editor of the journal Management Science, and Dr. William Pulleyblank, a Vice President of IBM.
This is a very well deserved honor for the three of them.
