Operations Research seminar series

The Operations Research seminar series is now hosted by the Department of Maths. Details of this year's programme can be found here.

The Operations Research seminar series focuses on recent advances in the field. The broad range of topics includes theoretical research in areas such as optimisation, algorithms, game theory, and applications of Operational Research to real world problems. The invited speakers are leading experts and young researchers from all over the world.

This series was formerly known as Management Science seminar series.
