Empowering Women in Optimization: Highly Successful Conference at FAU

The conference „Women in Optimization 2024“ at Friedrich-Alexander Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) was held from April 10 – 12th, 2024, as the fifth meeting in this series. More than 60 female researchers from both industry and academia, doctoral candidates, and students in mathematical optimization attended the successful event. The conference’s goal was both professional development and networking within the optimization community. With expert presentations by distinguished invited speakers, the conference covered a wide range of topics in mathematical optimization. In addition to the presentations, the workshop provided ample space for scientific discussions and the exchange of experiences. In an informal atmosphere, the attendants not only illuminated mathematical research topics but also discussed questions about career planning and work-life balance. Students and junior researchers actively participated in poster sessions where they showed and discussed their research topics. The conference was sponsored by several institutions and research initiatives, namely the CRC/TRR 154, CRC 1411, Department of Data Science (FAU), GRK 2423 Frascal, GRK IntComSin, SPP 1962, SPP 2353, and MATH+.
