Fuqiang Zhang, Dan Broida Professor of Operations and Manufacturing Management
“Professor Zhang is an energetic, rigorous, and friendly person. During the half year I studied with him, I learned many advanced methods of operational strategy from him and learned about many real cases. In class, he analyzes precise calculations and reasonable estimates. After class, he actively answers classmates’ questions and keeps in touch with his students. I was delighted to learn that he had just returned from Singapore. It promises to be a fun and rewarding journey. If given the chance, I still hope to gain his guidance.” Ming Lu, SMP

He clearly explained why we were doing it and what we were trying to accomplish. He was also very approachable and easy to talk to.” Oyeyemi Jolaoye Sonubi, 2025 MBA Candidate
