Teaching Assistant — Operations Research & Optimization
Feb 2025 — PresentMEF University
Supporting problem-solving sessions and helping students formulate mathematical models in linear and integer programming, network optimization, and heuristics.
Hi, I’m Yusuf.
I study Industrial Engineering at MEF University, with a minor in Data Science and Artificial Intelligence. I’m interested in how data, machine learning, and optimization can help us make better decisions.
My projects explore predictive maintenance, routing, and simulation. Here you can find my work, read how I built it, or try an interactive routing challenge.
