What will I learn?
This Optimisation Course provides a focused, hands-on approach to designing and solving small-scale vehicle routing problems. You'll gather and prepare real distance and cost data, construct exact models using modern solvers, and apply heuristics and metaheuristics. Gain skills in assessing trade-offs, conducting sensitivity analysis, and converting algorithmic outcomes into clear, dependable routing choices for practical operations.
Elevify advantages
