Background
Ingrid Winslow is on the faculty of the Department of Marketing & Supply Chain and holds a Ph.D. from the University of Iowa. Before Porter, Ingrid held an operations role in a hotel group.
Ingrid's research focuses on logistics and transportation, with related work in retail and services marketing; undergraduates are involved in the lab most terms.
Areas of expertise
- Logistics and transportation
- Retail and services marketing
- Undergraduate research and project mentoring
Teaching
Ingrid regularly teaches courses in Marketing & Digital Communication, Supply Chain Management, Hospitality & Tourism Management. Specific sections and syllabi are listed in the class schedule each term.
Courses lean on current problems from the field: students read recent work, reproduce a result or method, and then extend it. Ingrid builds in low-stakes practice before graded work and gives written feedback on drafts.
Advising and office hours
Ingrid advises students in the Marketing & Supply Chain programs and holds weekly office hours during the fall and spring terms, posted on the office door and in the course pages. Prospective students are welcome to email to arrange a visit or a call.
Advising conversations usually cover course sequencing, whether to add a minor or a concentration, and how classroom work connects to internships, research, or graduate study. Students who are undecided are welcome; part of the job is helping them narrow things down.
Recent and representative work
Ingrid's recent activity is a mix of peer-reviewed work, conference talks, and student-involved projects in logistics and transportation and retail and services marketing. Representative items:
- A peer-reviewed article on logistics and transportation in a disciplinary journal.
- A conference paper on retail and services marketing, co-authored with an undergraduate researcher.
- An internally funded project applying logistics and transportation to a regional partner's problem.
