Systems Engineering and Industrial Engineering Academic Programs 2016 WORLDWIDE DIRECTORY OF Systems Engineering and Industrial Engineering Academic Programs ® ® January 29, 2016 Dear Colleagues, Last year, the International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE) and the Systems Engineering Research Center (SERC) at Stevens Institute of Technology jointly published the first edition of the Worldwide Directory of Systems Engineer- ing and Industrial Engineering Academic Programs. Community reaction was very favorable, with many of our colleagues excited to see such a compendium for the first time. Their support and response via corrections and updates has prompted us to develop this second edition for 2016. We hope you find this directory valuable. Please share it with your colleagues and please feel free to send any updates or corrections to: [email protected]. Sincerely, INTERNATIONAL COUNCIL ON SYSTEMS ENGINEERING SYSTEMS ENGINEERING (INCOSE) RESEARCH CENTER (SERC) David Long Dinesh Verma, Ph.D. President Executive Director www.incose.org www.sercuarc.org 1 INTRODUCTION The information herein was primarily drawn from university websites. For each university, it shows the name and address of that university, what degrees that university offers (e.g., a B.S. in Systems Engineering or a Ph.D. in Industrial Engineering), the academic unit that offers those degrees, the head of the academic unit offering those degrees, and a URL where more information can be found. This is the second edition of the directory, reflecting many updates and additions since the first edition was released in early 2015. We plan to publish a new edition annually and welcome your help in correcting any errors in any of the information as well as letting us know about programs we have inadvertently omitted. In addition to a limited number of printed copies, the directory is posted online at both the INCOSE (www.INCOSE.org) and the SERC (www.SERCuarc.org) websites to enable broad distribution. There were some challenges in deciding which programs to include because there are so many variations in how universities call their systems and industrial engineering programs, especially when looking across so many countries. We have tried to keep things simple. With a few exceptions, we included only programs with the title “Systems Engineering,” “Industrial Engineering,” or those with another field added on, such as “Operations Research and Systems Engineering.” Generally, we did not include restricted systems or industrial engineering programs, such as “Computer Systems Engineering.” Contact for changes and information: [email protected] ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS We wish to acknowledge the efforts of the following individuals as contributors to the compilation of the second edition of the Directory: LaShawn Adams, Alekhya Andar, Megan Clifford, Kristine Gallo, Christopher Klesges, Myriam Marcus and Art Pyster. We also wish to recognize the efforts of the following individuals as contributors to the development of the first edition of the Directory: Megan Clifford, Kristine Gallo, Myriam Marcus, Pranav Patil, Art Pyster, Govarthanan Ravichandiran, Doris Schultz, and Harsh Shah. 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS AFRICA ........................................................................................................... 4 ASIA ............................................................................................................... 6 AUSTRALIA ................................................................................................... 23 EUROPE ........................................................................................................ 24 NORTH AMERICA, MEXICO AND PUERTO RICO ............................................... 42 SOUTH AND CENTRAL AMERICA .................................................................... 90 Alphabetical List of Universities ....................................................................... 99 List of Universities by Geographic Region ........................................................ 109 3 AFRICA Arab Academy for Science and Technology and Maritime Transport College of Engineering and Technology Room No: 420 Abu Keer P.O.

  • Revised 24.1.05 Gini's Multiple Regressions by Edna Schechtman and Shlomo Yitzhaki Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Beer Shev
    Revised 24.1.05 Gini's Multiple Regressions By Edna Schechtman and Shlomo Yitzhaki Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Beer Sheva, Israel and Hebrew University of Jerusalem, Jerusalem, Israel Abstract Two regression methods can be interpreted as based on Gini's mean difference (GMD). One relies on a weighted average of slopes defined between adjacent observations and the other is based on minimization of the GMD of the errors. The properties of the former approach are investigated in a multiple regression framework. These estimators have representations that resemble the OLS estimators, and they are robust, both with respect to extreme observations and with respect to monotonic transformations. The asymptotic behavior of the estimators is derived. The combination of the two methods provides a tool for assessing linearity that can be applied to each independent variable individually as well as to several independent variables simultaneously. The method is illustrated using consumption data from Israel. It is shown that the linearity of the Engel curve, and therefore the 'linear expenditures system' is rejected. Key Words: Gini's Mean Difference, Average Derivative, Linearity. Mailing Address: Shlomo Yitzhaki Dept. of Economics The Hebrew University Jerusalem, 91905, Israel. E-Mail: [email protected] Gini's Multiple Regressions 1. Introduction The aims of this paper are to develop and illustrate the properties of multiple regressions based on Gini's mean difference (hereafter, GMD). The simple regression case was investigated in Olkin and Yitzhaki (1992). There are two versions of these regressions: (a) A semi-parametric approach, which is based on estimating a regression coefficient that is a weighted average of slopes defined between adjacent observations (or all pairs of observations) of the regression curve.
