Faculty Research

In an era dominated by data, the ability to analyze, interpret, and utilize information has never been more critical. As decision-making becomes increasingly complex, so too does the need to connect data to decisions. Our faculty stands at the forefront of the science and engineering shaping the future of decision-making worldwide. We achieve this by combining algorithmic and mathematical research, building advanced technologies, developing a deep understanding of human behavior, and creating practical real-world applications.

The challenge we address is fundamentally multidisciplinary, as reflected in the diverse range of disciplines from which our faculty members come: artificial intelligence, statistics, machine learning, game theory, psychology, management science, probability, optimization, operations research, industrial engineering, and more.

Basic Research

We delve deep into the core principles driving data analysis and decision-making. Our faculty includes leading researchers in fields such as optimization, statistics, probability theory, game theory, and the foundations of computer science.
