Operations Research at TUM

The Operations Research (OR) group at TU Munich is primarily interested in discrete optimization and algorithmic game theory. It is also dedicated to using these techniques in applications of societal relevance, such as health care and humanitarian logistics. The multinational group is led by Alexander von Humboldt-Professor Andreas S. Schulz. It includes researchers spanning various backgrounds and disciplines, from mathematics to computer science and applications in engineering. The OR group maintains close ties with several other researchers at TU Munich, particularly within the Math and CS Departments and the School of Management. In addition, several group members participate in the DFG Graduiertenkolleg “Advanced Optimization in a Networked Economy (AdONE).” Professor Schulz is currently serving as Spokesperson of AdONE.
