Content

Upon successful completion of the module, students will be able to ...

  • analyse, structure, formalise through models and solve complex logistics problems under uncertainty,
  • design and implement algorithms for solving different types of stochastic programming problems,
  • analyse the relevance of capturing uncertainty into logistics problems through standard metrics,
  • transfer the methods learned to tasks that are new to them.

Requirement for participation

Basic knowledge of linear and mixed-integer optimization is required.
