Raymond K. Cheung
(PhD Princeton University, 1993)

Associate Professor

 


Research Interests

Transportation systems management, logistics and distribution planning, network modeling and optimization, stochastic and dynamic optimization.

 

Profile

Dr. Cheung received his BS (1984) degree in Applied Computational and Mathematical Science and MA (1985) degree in Applied Mathematics from York University, Canada, and his MA (1989) and PhD (1993) in Civil Engineering and Operations Research from Princeton University. He has done projects with major transportation companies on fleet management, routing, and service network design. After winning the George Dantzig prize for the best dissertation in Operations Research and Management Sciences internationally, and a Career Award from the National Science Foundation of America while teaching in the United States, he returned to Hong Kong to initiate the logistics research and teaching programs in 1996. At HKUST, he was the founding director of the HKUST Logistics and Supply Chain Forum and helped to establish the first Engineering Degree in Logistics Management in Hong Kong and a computational laboratory for transportation and logistics. Currently, he serves as the directors of the Master of Technology Management in Global Logistics Management Program and the Executive Diploma in Transportation Logistics Management Program, and the associate director of the Institute of Logistics and Supply Chain Management.
