OR-Congres

OR congres

Rotterdam, September 3-6, 2013

 Samen met de Nederlandse en Duitse Operations Research verenigingen organiseert de Erasmus Universiteit dit jaar het congres OR2013. Dit is een groot internationaal congres op het gebied van Operations Research met naar verwachting zo’n 700-1000 deelnemers. Het congres trekt deelnemers op alle deelgebieden van de Operations Research (o.a. combinatorische optimalisering, speltheorie, maar ook toepassingen uit transport & logistiek, de financiële econometrie en de gezondheidszorg).

Voor dit congres zoeken we als organisatie (econometrie) studenten die mee willen helpen tijdens het congres. Het gaat daarbij om de volgende activiteiten:

  • Het vullen van de conferentie tassen met informatie op dinsdag 3 september.
  • Het registreren van deelnemers op dinsdagavond 3 en woensdag 4 september.
  • Het helpen van sprekers bij het gebruik van beamer en laptop tijdens parallelle sessies op 4, 5 en 6 september.
  • Het wijzen van de weg naar en het controleren van de toegangskaarten tijdens de recepties en het conferentie diner op 3, 4 en 5 september (’s avonds).

We zoeken voor alle vier de dagen zo’n 20-30 studenten. Geef je snel op via or2013@ese.eur.nl (uiterlijk 1 mei) en geef daarbij aan op welke dagen je wilt helpen.

Voor studenten die in het collegejaar 2013/14 de master “Operations Research & Quantitative Logistics” gaan volgen, geldt dat er in de eerste week van september geen colleges zijn. Zij worden geacht in die week een literatuurstudie te doen, maar krijgen daar vrijstelling voor indien ze minstens 24 uur meehelpen bij OR2013 (in dat geval kunnen ze ook bij het congres sessies volgen).
