Pj Byrne
Prof

P.J. Byrne is Professor of Operations Management in Dublin City University Business School and is former Head of Group and member of the schools Faculty Management Board (2012 - 2015). He is also currently a member of the schools Faculty Management Board as an elected professorial member (2018 - present). Prior to joining DCU he worked in the Enterprise Research Centre in the University of Limerick from 2004 - 2007.
Prof. Byrne led the development of DCU's BSc in Aviation Management (with pilot studies) in 2008 and the MSc in Aviation Leadership in 2014. He chaired both programmes from development until September 2016. He has sat on a number of external programme accreditation panels across a range of Irish Higher Level Educational Institutes and is presently acting as external examiner for academic programmes in University College Cork. He also held an external examiner position in City University, Hong Kong from Jan 2015 - Jan 2019.
Prof. Byrne has an extensive track record in industrial based research and was a founding member of the Modelling and Simulation Research Group in DCUBS and the Dublin Aviation Institute, a joint venture between DCU and the Dublin Airport Authority. He has been a Principal Investigator for a number of national and international research projects and has been successful, with his research team in attracting significant research funds, primarily in the area of discrete event simulation and its application in manufacturing, services and healthcare process improvement.
Prof. Byrne's research interests include supply chain design, analysis and optimization, discrete event simulation, industrial applications of simulation modeling for the manufacturing and services sectors and business process optimisation.
Prof. Byrne has successfully supervised 10 research students to completion (8 PhDs and 2 Research Masters).
