Dr. Azita Hirsa proudly hosted PREFACE 2026 session introducing rising high school juniors and seniors to Industrial and Systems Engineering at Rensselaer.
Through presentations, videos, and interactive small-group activities, students explored how ISE brings together people, technology, data, and decision-making to solve real-world problems. The highly engaged students also learned about the many academic and career opportunities available through ISE.
Special thanks to Cynthia Smith for her dedication to PREFACE and to Vanessa Lewis and Lisa McCormick for helping make the session a success.
