Thanks for the opportunity to chat with the New Faculty Colloquium participants at #IISEAnnual2024 about teaching strategies to build an inclusive, accessible, and student-centered learning environment!
I am presenting at a podium a talk about how to be an effective teacher, and am highlighting a slide about using syllabus negotiation as a technique to connect with students

Let me know if you want to virtually attend the presentation. I’ll be talking about our new scenario clustering algorithm for network interdiction with decision-dependent uncertainty and how I have worked with human trafficking survivors to build Markov models!
ORSJ_Lab@ORSJ_Lab8 Apr 2024
We are looking forward to @tezcan_baris's PhD Dissertation Defense this Wednesday! He has contributed so much to the #ORMS field these past few years to advance optimization, network theory, transdisciplinary community-based approaches, and ethical human trafficking research!
