The abstract for Dr. Scott Fogler’s March 3rd seminar was recently released and can be seen in its entirety below. Dr. Fogler is the third ChE GSA selected seminar speaker. He will present his seminar on Thursday, March 3, 11:30 am to 12:30 pm in 102 Chemistry Building.

“How to Get from Here to There and What Happens Along the Way”

Yogi Berra of the New York Yankees once said “If you don’t know where you’re going, you will probably wind up some place else,” and sometimes that works out just fine. In research, teaching and the workplace we always have to look for the unexpected and then go with the flow when it happens. I will discuss how Steve Covey’s book on the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People can be relevant to our careers, and how Penn State has been influential in my teaching and textbooks. The seminar will end with a discussion of Kepner-Tregoe’s troubleshooting algorithm that has proven to be extremely useful in problem solving, consulting, and research.
