معرفی
Cindy Kuijpers is an Associate Professor and Academic Director of the Master Supply Chain Management program at Tilburg School of Economics and Management (TiSEM), part of Tilburg University. She holds a position in the Department of Information Systems and Operations Management. Her work focuses on operations management, supply chain optimization, and applications of genetic algorithms in complex problem-solving.
Her research interests span genetic algorithms for optimization challenges like the Traveling Salesman Problem, supply chain risk management in agricultural industries, and sustainability in supply networks through simulation-based approaches. She has contributed to foundational studies in moral graph triangulation and wafer stepper efficiency in semiconductor manufacturing.
Key publications include seminal works on genetic algorithm representations (1999), supply risk management in Dutch horticulture (2005), and trust’s role in sustainable supply chains (2008). No scientific awards are explicitly listed in the provided texts. She teaches Operations Management across multiple programs (IBA, EBE, BA, BE). No advising relationships or grants are detailed in the source materials.
Her interdisciplinary work bridges theoretical computer science with practical supply chain challenges, reflecting her dual focus on algorithmic innovation and industry-relevant solutions.
