Doctoral Research Seminar

The IEOR Department hosts a weekly academic research seminar on Fridays throughout the Fall and
Spring semesters featuring various faculty and Columbia affiliates. This course is designed specifically
for doctoral students in Industrial Engineering and Operations Research at Columbia University. The
seminar research topics cut across operations research, financial engineering, industrial engineering,
machine learning, optimization, applied probability, and business analytics.
The primary goal of the seminar series is to broaden students' exposure to cutting-edge research
methodologies, foster cross-disciplinary intellectual synthesis, sharpen critical research evaluation skills,
and facilitate academic networking within the broader scientific community.
