Raphael Hauser

As a Tutorial Fellow at Pembroke College Raphael teaches tutorials in physical and nonphysical applied mathematics and in statistics. As Associate Professor at the Mathematical Institute he also gives lectures to undergraduate and graduate student, specifically Part B Integer Programming (MT19), InFoMM CDT Discrete Optimisation (MT19) and MCF MSc Optimization (HT20), as well as intercollegiate classes in B6.3 Integer Programming.

Raphael studied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics at EPFL and ETH, graduating with an MSc in Pure Mathematics. After teaching for two years, he then moved to Cornell University and started doctoral studies in Operations Research and Industrial Engineering with a minor in Computer Science.

In 1999 he earned his doctorate in Operations Research and moved to the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics at the University of Cambridge to take up a postdoctoral position. Two years later he became a University Lecturer at the Oxford Computing Laboratory (now the Computer Science Department) and a Tutorial Fellow in Applied Mathematics at Pembroke College. He is now an Associate Professor at the Oxford Mathematical Institute.

Oxford University Teaching Award (2007), SIAM Activity Group on Optimization Prize (2005), SIAM Student Paper Prize (2000).
