A few years later, she received a doctorate from the University of Marseille and she arrived in Mexico to begin teaching at the National Polytechnic Institute.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Years later, in 1991, she was invited by ITAM to conduct research during her sabbatical year, and she joined the Department of Business Administration. In that period of her professional life, her research revolved around numerical analysis and optimization. Dr. Gigola said that \u201c<strong>since my arrival at ITAM everyone has treated me very well<\/strong>\u201d and for that reason she decided to stay at our Institute.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Evolution Toward Interest in Logistics<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Logistics-related issues entered her life in the<strong> late 1990s<\/strong>. The logistics revolution was reaching its maturity after the great changes caused by the arrival of the Internet and the new information technologies. The <strong>Department of Business Administration<\/strong> understood that this was an area of opportunity to develop in the coming years and she led the way: She researched the subject and connected her numerical skills with the problems presented by business logistics.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Since then <strong>she has taught all kinds of classes, workshops, conferences and seminars<\/strong> related to the subject to undergraduate and engineering students.She started as a professor of the Department of Business Administration and then later in the Department of Industrial Engineering and Operations where she had to further these essential areas as an outstanding mission for the business world.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">Logistics as a Work Philosophy in a Company<\/h2>\n<blockquote><p>Industrial Engineering is a discipline dedicated to the design, innovation, improvement, installation and administration of integrated systems. These systems of human resources, materials, equipment and technologies are\u00a0organized by the efficient and effective production of manufacturing and services. On the other hand, Engineering Operations is a discipline dedicated to the development of methods, techniques and systems to support decision-making processes. The scope of these disciplines has recently expanded, thanks to its application in the improvement of the provisions of high added-value services such as the distribution, transport and supply of goods, communication and information services, and security and medical services.<\/p>\n<p>Department of Industrial Engineering and Operations<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Her expertise in supply chains led her to coordinate a certification course for <strong>Executive Development of ITAM<\/strong>, which she has taught for more than 15 years.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In 2011, <strong>the #SoyLog\u00edstico Association<\/strong>, the Ministry of Economy and the Ministry of Communications and Transportation recognized her academic career in the area of logistics by awarding her with the National Logistics Award, known as the \u201cGalard\u00f3n Tameme.\u201d Dr. Gigola says that what she is most<strong> proud of is finding successful students who remember her advice in the classroom.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">September 19, 2017: Reflections of Cristina Gigola<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">After Hurricane Manuel, the career of <strong>Cristina Gigola<\/strong> and her areas of interest took a new direction.
