STEM Cafe: Supply Chain Puzzle – How will holiday gifts get to your door?
Speaker: Christine Nguyen, Ph.D., NIU Associate Professor of Industrial and Systems Engineering
As the holidays approach, what factors affect how quickly or slowly a product can make its way to your local store or front door?
Join Dr. Christine Nguyen, NIU Associate Professor of Industrial and Systems Engineering, for a closer look at the supply chain. Learn how, in our global economic system, components of a single product can come from thousands of miles apart. A drought, snowstorm or factory closure halfway around the world can affect what’s available at your local store – and all of these uncertainties are compounded by the current pandemic.
