Education

PhD, Clemson University

Areas of Research

Modeling large scale and complex systems using computer simulation methodologies, and statistical analysis of simulation output data. Applying advanced statistical techniques to address combinatorial and stochastic problems as applied to real-life manufacturing, inventory control and telecommunication systems. Designing and developing intelligent multimedia instructional tools in improving engineering education.

Current Research Interests

Dr. Bengu is working with faculty and students from three other universities engaged in concurrent engineering design and manufacturing of a feeding device for people with disabilities. She also is designing and developing multimedia-based teaching aids that employ computer simulation and artificial intelligence techniques, to be used specifically for the environmental education of engineers. In related activities, Dr. Bengu is creating positive opportunities for women engineers, conducting workshops on state-of-the-art technologies such as the Internet, simulations and animations, multimedia, and hypertext.
