José Luis González Velarde

José Luis González Velarde is a professor and researcher with the Tec de Monterrey, Monterrey Campus.

González Velarde’s educational background consists of a bachelors in mathematics from Tec de Monterrey, Campus Monterrey (1971), a masters in mathematics from the Centro de Investigación y de Estudios Avanzados del Instituto Politécnico Nacional (1973) (earned through a scholarship obtained from CONACYT), a masters in industrial engineering and operations research from the University of California, Berkeley (1978) and a doctorate in industrial engineering and operations research from the University of Texas, Austin (1990).[1][2]

González Velarde primarily considers himself a researcher and even performs this work on his own time, rarely taking vacations.[3] He has worked in this capacity with the Center for Quality and Manufacturing, School of Engineering at Campus Monterrey since 1990 and with the Cátedra de Investigación Tecnológico de Monterrey en Cadenas de Suministro since 2003.[1][2] His specialties include computational optimization and algorithm design for logistics and manufacturing.[1] He has participated in over 15,000 peer-reviewed publications in Spanish and English and has had his work published in journals such as IIE Transactions, Journal of Heuristics, Annals of OR, Computers and OR, Journal of Intelligent Manufacturing, EJOR, Transportation Science, Journal of the Operational Research Society, and Computers and Industrial Engineering.[2][4]

However, he began his academic career as a teacher and is still involved in this activity. From 1973 to 1985 he was a professor in mathematics at the Universidad Autónoma de Nuevo León, then worked as an assistant instructor with the Department of Mechanical Engineering of the University of Texas, Austin from 1985 to 1990.[2] Since joining the Tec de Monterrey in 1990, his teaching foci include production, manufacturing and logistics systems, and computational optimization at the graduate level, supervising more than thirty master’s level theses and five doctorate level ones.[3][4] Since the 1990s, he has also been a visiting professor in institutions such as Universidad del Norte de Barranquilla, the University of Colorado, the University of Texas and the Polytechnic University of Catalonia .[3][4]

In addition to academic work, González Velardo has also worked on several reorganization and modernization projects such as those with Bancomer, De Acero, and Aeromexico in the 1990s and a project with the state of Nuevo León in 2008.[1]

González Velarde has been noted for his work in Who's Who in Science and Engineering (2003-2004) and has received third place at the Premio Rómulo Garza de la Investigación y el Desarrollo Tecnológico (1993, 2001, 2010) .[1][3] He also has level II membership in Mexico’s Sistema Nacional de Investigadores.[5]
