Biography

Prof. Menglong Li is an Assistant Professor of Management Sciences in the College of Business, City University of Hong Kong. Before joining CityU, he was a postdoctoral associate of MIT Institute for Data, Systems, and Society. He received a PhD degree in Operations Research from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, a MS degree in Mathematics from the University of Pierre and Marie Curie and a BS degree in Mathematics from the Tsinghua University. His research interests include inventory management, revenue management, (discrete) convex analysis, combinatorial optimization, approximation algorithms, and data-driven decision making.

Openings: I am looking for self-motivated Ph.D. students interested in operations research and optimization, with potential applications in inventory management and revenue management. Prospective students with strong mathematical backgrounds are welcome to email me a CV and transcript. Students majoring in mathematics are especially welcome.
