Lillian Gilbreth was an industrial engineer who became Purdue University College of Engineering's 1st woman faculty member (1935-48). She was the first woman appointed to the National Academy of Engineering (1965) and to receive Hoover Medal (1966) for distinguished public service. Lillian pioneered numerous #industrialengineering, #management, and #psychology principles. Purdue University Edwardson School of Industrial Engineering is very proud of her trailblazing and remarkable achievements for the Industrial Engineering discipline and our society, and having had her as our faculty member. https://lnkd.in/gRp8ipSN https://lnkd.in/gWxspp3e
Today, we're thankful for the remarkable life and achievements of Lillian Gilbreth. Your #Thanksgiving dinner wouldn't be the same without Gilbreth, #PurdueEngineering's first female professor and America's "First Lady of Engineering." Gilbreth invented refrigerator shelving, the foot-pedal trash can and the "work triangle" concept for optimal efficiency. She played a crucial role in designing the modern kitchen. What other innovations you should be thankful for, thanks to #PurdueEngineers: https://bit.ly/3ZGs8hg #PurdueEngineering150
