About

In this basic course in optimization you will use case studies, presented by researchers in different areas at Chalmers and the University of Gothenburg, to learn tools for practical modeling and solving optimization problems. You will learn the principles of mathematical modeling and how the properties of optimization models can be used in practical problem solving. You will model concrete optimization problems by yourself and analyze your model, choose an algorithm, implement it in software, and analyze your solutions.

This course is open to

Exchange students at the Faculty of Science and exchange students on a university-wide agreement. Please contact your international coordinator at the University of Gothenburg if you need to know more.

Entry requirements
