THIS EVENT HAS BEEN POSTPONED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE.

Please join the U-M IOE community for a very special event to honor the legacy of Walton M. Hancock.

Walt was a faculty member since 1959, serving as department chair, and continuing on as a professor emeritus through his retirement. He played a major role in establishing the department’s foothold in manufacturing, healthcare delivery systems, and worker safety, among others.

His pioneering work helped guide the Department of Industrial and Operations Engineering and lay the foundation for our current mission and vision for education and research.

Attendees will have the opportunity to meet with Walt’s family and friends, IOE alums, faculty and students, and learn about some of the most recent activities in the department stemming from Walt’s legacy.

We hope to see you in May. Should you have any questions, please reach out to ioe.events@umich.edu.
