معرفی
Prof. Dr. Kumru Didem Atalay is a distinguished academic at Başkent University, specializing in Industrial Engineering. With a PhD in Statistics from Ankara University (2007), she has made significant contributions to Operations Research, Fuzzy Logic, and Decision Support Systems. Her work bridges statistical analysis with real-world applications in healthcare logistics, pandemic response, and manufacturing optimization.
- Education: PhD (2007), MS (2000), BS (1998) in Statistics from Ankara University
- Current Role: Professor in Industrial Engineering at Başkent University
Her research focuses on stochastic processes, fuzzy modeling, and healthcare operations, particularly in pandemic-era service quality and microchannel manufacturing. She has developed innovative methods for project scheduling, risk analysis, and multi-criteria decision-making.
Recent publications examine Covid-19's impact on education quality and fuzzy linear programming for project scheduling. She applies intuitionistic fuzzy models to optimize manufacturing systems and hesitant fuzzy regression for pandemic death count estimation.
Scientific recognition includes a Runner-up Prize at the 15th ICMSEM (2021) and a Bronze Medal at ISIF21 (1970). She supervises advanced research on topics like multi-trip home healthcare routing and fuzzy quality function deployment.
