Teaching

Teaching is one of the main reasons why I chose to remain in academia! For me, teaching is emphatically not just an afterthought to research : given the slow nature of deep research and the even slower publication cycles of top journals, teaching has often been a more immediate means to influence minds and change things for the better, and also a gratifying personal experience!

I have taught several courses dealing with prescriptive analytics and AI at various levels (undergraduate, MBA, executive MBA) as well as doctoral classes on optimization and supply chain management. A list follows below. (For complete transparency, each course also includes the complete ratings and student feedback, where available.)
