TORCH - Operations Research Competition at University of Toronto

Operations Research is an interdisciplinary field of study that, through the use of techniques from engineering, computer science and mathematics, aims to understand and solve complex decision-making problems in a variety of settings, including manufacturing, service industries, logistics, healthcare, energy, and finance.

TORCH 2015 is the fifth annual operations research challenge organized at the Mechanical & Industrial Engineering Department at University of Toronto. TORCH is a one-day contest where teams of 3 to 4 high school students solve 5 to 10 problems related to different application areas of operations research. TORCH 2015 will be held on Saturday March 21st. If you are a high school student, join us at the University of Toronto for TORCH 2015!
