Prof. Dr. Gudrun P. Kiesmüller
Academic Career and Research Areas
Prof. Kiesmüller's primary research interests are supply chain management, inventory management, and in particular the management of spare parts inventories. Recent projects also included the planning of maintenance processes and the design of manufacturing systems. In her work also optimization approaches are developed for decision support. Together with different co-authors she has published in leading international journals such as European Journal of Operational Research, IISE Transactions, Production and Operations Management among others.
Prof. Kiesmüller has studied Mathematics at the Julius Maximilians University Würzburg where she also obtained her doctoral degree. Afterwards she joined the Technical University Eindhoven in the Netherlands as a PostDoc and later as an Assistent Professor. At the Christian Albrechts Universität zu Kiel she was appointed as a full professor for Supply Chain Management, and at the Otto-von-Guericke University Magdeburg for Operations Management. Since 2019 she is a Full Professor for Operations Management at the TUM Campus Heilbronn.
