Hi, I am Collin Drent.

I am an Assistant Professor of Operations Management in the School of Industrial Engineering of Eindhoven University of Technology. In my research, I study the integration of learning and optimization to effectively address operational challenges faced by decision-makers in practice in healthcare operations, and condition-based maintenance. 

I received my PhD in Applied Mathematics from Eindhoven University of Technology in 2022, where I was fortunate to be advised by Stella Kapodistria, Onno Boxma and Geert-Jan van Houtum. 

I am always open to new collaborations. You can reach me at: c.drent at tue dot nl
