Juan Borrero, PhD

Dr. Juan S. Borrero joined as an Associate Professor in the Department of Industrial and Management Systems Engineering at the University of South Florida in Fall 2024. He holds a B.Sc. in Mathematics and a M.Sc. in Industrial Engineering, both from the University of Los Andes, Bogota, Colombia, and holds a Ph.D. in Industrial Engineering from the University of Pittsburgh (2017). His research interests are mainly in optimization under uncertainty. Methodologically, his focus is on bilevel, robust, network, and mixed-integer optimization, probability, and stochastic processes.


He has focused on sequential hierarchical decision-making problems with uncertainty and learning, including applications such as smuggling interdiction, defender-attacker problems, and commit or defer problems. More recently, he has worked in applications such as preparedness and response against tornado hazards, UAV routing for intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance missions, influence problems in social networks, information discovery optimization, among others. His research has been funded by ONR, AFOSR, and by an NSF CAREER award and has been published in journals including Operations Research, INFORMS Journal on Computing, the European Journal of Operational Research, Heredity, among others.
