Biography

Dr. WANG Chen, Associate Professor, Department of Industrial Engineering, Tsinghua University. She obtained the bachelor's degree of Industrial Engineering from Beihang University, and the master's degrees of Statistics and Industrial and Systems Engineering and the doctoral degree of Industrial and Systems Engineering from University of Wisconsin-Madison. The research at Wang's group focuses on data-driven decision and risk analysis, and is dedicated to provide smart decision solutions to cope with technical and societal challenges involving risk, uncertainty and trade-offs. Wang’s research group welcomes students who are interested in decision modeling (including utility, probability judgment, optimization, stochastic process, game theory), statistical and machine learning, and human-AI collaborative decision-making.
