NWO Grant
Professor Ruud Teunter and researcher Dennis Prak, received a NWO Research Talent grant for the project "Effects of Forecast Uncertainty on Inventory Control". The goal is to solve the mismatch between inventory control models and their practical use by building models that take uncertainty
about the future demand distribution into account.
The grant will provide financial support for Dennis Prak to do PhD research at FEB. "Research Talent" is an NWO programme that offers talented, upcoming researchers the opportunity to fulfil their ambitions of pursuing a scientific career with a three-year PhD research project within the field
of social and behavioural sciences.
