Operations Research Group

Our Research

SFU has an active group in Operations Research. Our research interests include continuous and discrete optimization, algorithms, approximation, convex and conic programming, machine learning, and applications including to biology and health care. We have close ties to the Mathematics and Data Group, the Discrete Mathematics Group and the Industrial Mathematics Group. In addition, we are a part of the interdisciplinary Centre for Operations Research and Decision Sciences (CORDS) which connects us to Business Administration, Computing Science and Statistics and Actuarial Science.

Join us for our weekly seminars Thursdays at 2:00 pm (unless otherwise noted).
