Brief Biography
Ching-Shin Shiau is a Ph.D. student at Carnegie Mellon University, under the guidance of Professor Jeremy Michalek. He is also a research member in the MUSES project. His primary research areas includes: 1) Engineering Design with Marketing Demand: Use discrete choice model to predict consumer demand and optimize product design for profitability; 2) Game-Theoretic Method for Product Design under Market Competition: Consider product as part of market competition and develop approaches to finding design solutions at market equilibrium; 3) Parametric Design for Green Vehicles: Use vehicle performance simulator to construct of design meta-model hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) and alternative fuel vehicle (AFV) for design optimization; and 4) Environmental Policy: Study the combination effects of marketing demand, competition and public policy on product design decisions and the resulting environmental impacts.
Before coming to the United States, he received a B.S. degree in National Chung-Hsing University, and an M.S. degree in National Taiwan University, with thesis work on tolerance synthesis for reliability and quality, both mechanical engineering majored. Between 1997 and 1999, he served the compulsory military service in the Taiwan R.O.C. Army, as a battalion logistic officer at the rank of second lieutenant. He received the Army Medal of Honor when discharged from full two-year services. During 1999-2004, he was a mechanical design engineer in BenQ Corporation, one of the leading digital device providers in Taiwan, with the responsibility of designing printer components and solving manufacturing and production issues. He participated in several printer development projects, including the first hi-speed color laser printer OEM project in Taiwan IT industry in 2001. He has five printer-design related patents in the US, Taiwan and China. He was awarded the Best Employee of the Year 2002, and also a member of the Outperform Project Team in 2001.
