Bryan R. Moser, academic director and senior lecturer in System Design and Management at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has been elected president of the International Society of Transdisciplinary Engineering (ISTE).
The Society
The International Society of Transdisciplinary Engineering (ISTE) was established in 2018, building on the International Society of Production Engineering. The society has explored and promoted the importance of concurrent engineering and manufacturing across the world since 1994 and the first Concurrent Engineering conference at Carnegie Mellon University.
The founding members of ISTE recognized the increasing sociotechnical complexity of challenges faced by engineers requiring them to embrace transdisciplinary ways of working. The society’s members, leaders in the practice and research of transdisciplinary engineering, seek to expand our understanding of the capabilities and roles of engineers to meet the needs of humanity today.
