Emiliya Suprun

Dr. Emiliya Suprun is a Lecturer in Systems Engineering at UNSW Canberra's School of Systems and Computing (SYSCOM) and Capability Systems Centre. She joined UNSW in 2023 following postdoctoral research at Griffith University's School of Engineering & Built Environment. Her research develops integrated decision-support systems using system dynamics modeling, digital engineering, and operational research methods, with applications in construction innovation, infrastructure digitization, and sustainability.

Research Focus: Dr. Suprun's interdisciplinary work bridges:

• Systems Engineering: Developing robust modeling frameworks for complex infrastructure systems
• Digital Transformation: Creating maturity assessment tools for organizational digitization
• Sustainability Integration: Addressing modern slavery, ethical compliance, and environmental management in construction
• Policy Innovation: Using participatory modeling for industry transformation and crisis response

Publication Trends: Her 15 most recent works (2019-2025) demonstrate consistent focus on system dynamics applications. Early research examined innovation ecosystems in construction, while recent publications address cybersecurity in space infrastructure, digital maturity frameworks, and ethical supply chains. This evolution shows expanding scope from industry-specific models to mission-critical systems protection.
