Coen van Gulijk re-joined TNO in the Netherlands after a five-year post as full professor at the University of Huddersfield at the school of computing and engineering. He remains academically active as a visiting professor at the school of computing and engineering at the University of Huddersfield. His work focuses on the IT transformation Risk Analysis and Safety Management Systems. The objective is to provide industries with modern IT business systems to support risk-based decision making and asset management and to deliver cost reductions, performance enhancements, and optimization in industry. The introduction of AI functionality in safety management software is of special interest. Coen received a Ph.D. degree chemical engineering, applying computational fluid dynamics for aerosol deposition in diesel exhaust gasses. He has produced over 100 scientific papers on various topics and edited and co-edited half a dozen of multi-author books and proceedings.
