Engineering Academy Selects Lee

Professor Hau L. Lee, an expert on global supply chain management, has been elected to the National Academy of Engineering. He was cited for his "contributions demonstrating the impact of information-sharing on supply chain design and management."

Lee became the fifth Stanford Graduate School of Business faculty member to receive the honor. The others are J. Michael Harrison, the Adams Distinguished Professor of Management; William F. Miller, the Herbert Hoover Professor of Public and Private Management, Emeritus, who is former provost of Stanford and former president of SRI International; Lawrence M. Wein, the Paul E. Holden Professor of Management Science; and Andrew S. Grove, lecturer in business and former chief executive of Intel.

Lee, who is the Thoma Professor of Operations, Information, and Technology, is widely credited with advancing the study and practice of supply chain management, which involves the flows of materials, information, and money in producing goods and services.
