Sana Nguyen

Background

Sana Nguyen is on the faculty of the Department of Management and holds a doctoral clinical degree from Kansas State University and is licensed to practice. Before Porter, Sana led operations for a mid-market manufacturer.

Sana brings that practice into the classroom, teaching from real cases and current standards in organizational behavior and operations management.

Areas of expertise

• Organizational behavior
• Operations management
• Applied practice and industry partnerships

Teaching

Sana regularly teaches courses in Business Administration, Leadership Studies, Entrepreneurship. Specific sections and syllabi are listed in the class schedule each term.

Class time is built around cases and real deliverables. Students work to professional standards, present to a critique or a client-style panel, and revise. Sana keeps the connection to current practice explicit.

Advising and office hours

Sana advises students in the Management 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

Sana stays active in practice alongside teaching, through consulting, standards work, and applied projects in organizational behavior and operations management. Representative items:

• An applied project in organizational behavior with an industry or community partner.
• A workshop or short course on operations management for practitioners in the region.
• Service on a standards, licensing, or advisory body related to organizational behavior.

Titles and venues here are illustrative. UW–Porter Falls is fictional; Sana has no real publication record.
