Graduate Student Directory
The Graduate Student Directory is a booklet of ORC student resumes that is compiled each year and is circulated to universities and private companies. The primary focus of this effort is on permanent job placement; however, students have also had success in finding summer jobs through this vehicle. Employers who are interested in hiring a student can contact the student directly.
The latest Graduate Student Directory can be found here.

|
Research Interests: My research interest lies in the design of novel algorithms for decision making under uncertainty, motivated by precise theoretical understand of such problems. I worked in particular in designing novel Optimization and Machine Learning methods based on robust optimization and regularization, introducing a novel more efficient Reinforcement Learning and dynamic optimization framework and finally designing more powerful neural network architectures. |

|
Research Interests: In my graduate work, I develop decomposition methods for large-scale optimization models toward integrated design of urban transportation systems. In particular, I like to think about how elements of flexibility can improve traditional fixed-route public transit systems. My current projects include paratransit workforce scheduling, microtransit line-setting, and multimodal pricing alliance design between transit agencies and ride-hailing operators. |
