Many students have never heard of Industrial & Systems Engineering — and even fewer understand the incredible impact it has on the world. This episode of Problem Solved: The IISE Podcast explores a creative solution to that challenge: the ISE Impact Short Video Contest, which invites students and professionals to explain ISE’s value in just 60 seconds.

You'll hear from:

• Dr. Ana Muriel, associate professor at UMass Amherst and co-creator of the contest
• Hannah Brooks, a nursing student who used stop-motion animation to tackle global food security
• Anwaar Zyoud, an industrial engineer who used ISE methods to transform her Taekwondo performance

Together, they show how creativity, storytelling, and problem-solving can inspire the next generation of engineers.
