Our research group approaches management engineering with a multidisciplinary approach. In addition to classical topics, such as supply chain management and operations, we take an in-depth look at topical academic and industrial issues. Our most recent projects have cross-cuttingly covered the topics of sustainability and circular economy and digitization, with a focus on artificial intelligence in the context of Industry 4.0.
