Richard Alaimo

Dr. Richard Alaimo serves as a Lecturer in the Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte, where he teaches SEGR 2105 Computational Methods for Systems Engineering I from his office in Smith Hall 317. His career is deeply rooted at UNC Charlotte, having earned all his academic credentials from the institution.

His educational foundation includes:

• Ph.D. in Infrastructure and Environmental Systems
• M.S. in Engineering Management
• B.S. in Systems Engineering

Alaimo's research integrates Operations Research with Systems Engineering to solve complex infrastructure challenges, particularly in environmental systems. His expertise in computational methods drives practical applications for engineering optimization, evidenced by his recognition in INFORMS and IISE competitions focused on machine-driven operational solutions.

His distinguished honors include:

• fORged-by-Machines Contest Finalist (INFORMS, 2019)
• Graduate Research Reward (IISE, 2019)
• Operations Research Undergraduate Division Finalist (IISE, 2016)

While the current documentation does not specify doctoral advisees or active grant funding, Alaimo's work centers on advancing computational techniques within industrial engineering education. No dedicated research laboratories or collaborative teams are referenced in available materials.
