    Dear Colleagues,

    We are very excited to announce the joint Amazon Supply Chain Optimization Technologies (SCOT) and the Institute for Operations Research and Management Sciences (INFORMS) Fellowship to attend the national INFORMS meeting in Anaheim, CA, October 24-27, 2021. The application process is brief and the reward to the chosen students is paid attendance for the conference (registration, hotel, and reasonable travel expenses). 

    The conference is the flagship conference for the international organization (INFORMS) where researchers and practitioners in the fields of operations research and management science discuss and disseminate recent breakthroughs in the fields. The goals of the program are to introduce students to the growing field of operations research (which has close connections to data science), while allowing Amazon an opportunity to get to know your top students! 

     

    Please forward the attached flyer to students who may have an interest in this opportunity!  Deadline to apply online is August 31st. 

     

    Warm regards,

    Alicia Bridges and Mark E. Lewis

    Co-chairs of the Amazon SCOT/INFORMS Fellowship committee
