Stephen Chick is a Professor of Technology and Operations Management at INSEAD. He received his MSc and PhD from the University of California at Berkeley in Industrial Engineering and Operations Research and his BSc in Mathematics from Stanford University. Prior to joining INSEAD, he taught process modeling, simulation and information systems as a faculty member at the University of Michigan.
He worked for five years in the automotive and software industries before joining academia. In the MBA program he teaches the Process and Operations Management core course at INSEAD, as well as a Management of Services elective course. In 2004 he codirected the Industrial Excellence Award competition, that recognizes top factories in France, Germany and Eastern Europe, as described in Usine Nouvelle and WirtschaftsWoche magazines. His research also brings together simulation and statistical decision making tools to help improve process design and public health decisions. His work on epidemic modeling and simulation and vaccine and intervention trial analysis has been funded by the US Environmental Protection Agency, the Centers for Disease Control and the National Institutes of Health. Most recently he is working at the interface of health economics and operations management to assess the cost effectiveness of interventions that are intended to limit the transmission of HIV (with the CDC) and for vCJD (with Sheffield University, for the UK National Institute for Health and Clinical Effectiveness).
In addition to teaching and research, Steve provides leadership and service to several academic journals and professional organizations. He is President of the Institute for Operations Research and Management Science's Simulation Society, is an Area Editor for ACM Transactions on Modeling and Computer Simulation, and an Associate Editor for Operations Research. He organizes sessions at professional conferences and reviews for a number of journals and publishers.
