Biography

(Datu) Buyung Agusdinata received a B.S. degree (1996) in Aerospace and Mechanical Engineering from the Bandung Institute of Technology, Indonesia, a MS degree (1999) in Aerospace Industrial Engineering (Cum Laude) and a PhD degree (2008)  in Systems Engineering and Policy Analysis, both from the Delft University of Technology,  The Netherlands. His previous assignment was an associate research scientist at Purdue University before joining the Northern Illinois University as a faculty member. He taught courses in the topic of system-of-systems, decision analysis, green engineering and industrial ecology, system analysis for sustainable development, and energy management. His main research interests include sustainable energy and transportation systems, green supply chain, system analysis of the development and impacts of nanomedicine, and drought adaptation policies. He has co-authored a book chapter on consequential life cycle assessment and published articles in journals such as Environmental Science and Technology, Journal of Nanoparticle Research, and Natural Hazards. Dr. Agusdinata was the recipient of the International Council on Systems Engineering (INCOSE) Fellowship to advance the state of practice of systems thinking and perspective. He was a PI on a SESYNC-funded project to support decision making on adaptation policies to dealing with drought. As a guest faculty researcher at the Argonne National Laboratory, he investigated the added values of improved forecast of electricity generation from solar to support a better integration of solar energy to the electricity market. Recently, he serves as a co-PI on an NSF-funded workshop to identify climate change mitigation strategies based on improved understanding and management of coupled food, energy and water (FEW) production-consumption systems. Tennis and photography are his passion in spare time.
