Dean, College of Engineering and Computer Science
Syracuse University

About me. I joined Syracuse University as Dean in October 2019 with the goal of furthering the College’s mission of providing outstanding undergraduate and graduate educational opportunities for students, bolstering research and scholarship, and strengthening economic development throughout the region through our efforts in engineering and computing innovation.

Research. My research interests lie in the field of mathematical optimization, especially in mixed-integer programming and combinatorial optimization. My research works regard network interdiction and fortification problems, large-scale optimization, dynamic and nonlinear programming, and network flow optimization. My research has applications in logistics, national security, healthcare, production, and sports.
