Short bio
Andreas S. Schulz is Professor of Mathematics of Operations Research
and Holder of the Patrick J. McGovern (1959) Chair at the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), which he joined as a
member of the faculty in 1998. He is a faculty member of MIT's
Sloan School and of MIT's Operations Research Center, former head of
the Operations Research and Statistics Group at Sloan, and a former
member of the Singapore-MIT Alliance. He has held visiting research
professorships in the Institute of Theoretical Computer Science at ETH
Zurich and in the Department of Quantitative Economics at Maastricht
University. Other visiting positions led him to the University of
British Columbia, to Eindhoven University of Technology, and to
Technische Universität München. He got his Ph.D. in
Mathematics from the Technische Universität Berlin in 1996. His
research interests include algorithmic game theory, approximation
algorithms, combinatorial optimization, computational complexity,
integer programming, network flows, polyhedral combinatorics, and
scheduling theory. In 2010, he received the Humboldt Research Award
in recognition of his lifetime achievements in research. Earlier, the
German Academy of Sciences Leopoldina and the Berlin-Brandenburg
Academy of Sciences and Humanities had named him one of 20 founding
members of "Die Junge Akademie." Other honors include the Best Paper
Award of the Transportation Science & Logistics Society of INFORMS,
the Glover-Klingman Prize, the Carl-Ramsauer-Prize, and awards for
excellence in teaching. He has been on the editorial boards of
several scientific journals, including ACM Transactions on Algorithms, Discrete
Optimization, INFORMS Journal on Computing, Journal of Scheduling, and
Operations Research.
