2023 Purdue Research Symposium on Operations
Daniels School of Business, Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN 47907
September 8 (Friday) – September 10 (Sunday), 2023
The Supply Chain and Operations Management Area of the Daniels School of Business at Purdue University is pleased to announce the upcoming research symposium on Operations to be held on in the West Lafayette campus of Purdue University. This symposium aims to provide a new academic platform to gather a group of leading scholars, industrial professionals, and PhD students from the field of Operations Management and Operation Research to share their exciting research findings, new ideas, and visions and publication tips. We will arrange keynote lectures, parallel sessions, student presentations and panel discussions to facilitate various intellectual interactions. The topics can be theoretical or methodological research, empirical studies, and case studies. Student attendees will have opportunities to closely interact with the invited faculty members and fellow PhD students who share similar research interests and career plans.
All doctoral students with strong research interests in Operations are invited to apply, especially those in the formative stages of their research agenda. There is no fee to register for the conference. But students must apply using the attached registration form. Space is limited and acceptance will be based on the strength of submitted support materials. This symposium will cover up to three nights' lodging (Sep 7,8,9) and food expenses during the meeting. Attendees are responsible for their transportation expenses. Up to approximately 40 students from major universities will be selected to participate. Due to the budget limit, we may require students of the same gender to share rooms (up to two students for each room).
We also welcome students to present their research papers and arrange student presentation sessions. If you are interested in giving a presentation, please provide the title and abstract as well as your bio information.
