CALL FOR PAPERS for the 2018 Student Conference on Operational Research (SCOR 2018)

PhD students from all Universities studying Operational Research, Management Science or a related field are kindly invited to submit an abstract for presentation at the conference. As some presenters may still be on an early stage of in their careers, the work presented does not need to be fully developed or thoroughly explored as of yet. The purpose of SCOR 2018 is to provide a friendly environment for the next generation of Operational Researchers to receive constructive feedback on their work and to meet people with similar interests.
Plenary talks will be given by various OR professionals undertaking a wide range of exciting careers. This will give students an opportunity to consider the many career paths available after completing their doctorate.
