Abílio Pacheco
Senior Researcher
PhD in Industrial Engineering and Management (UP, 2017)
Work Line 2: Risk management
PhD in Industrial Engineering and Management (FEUP, 2017) and Master in Service Engineering and Management (FEUP, 2011), Abílio is a Visiting Assistant Professor at the University of Porto (FEUP/DEGI). Abílio’s research focuses on flexible design under uncertainty, applied to forest fire management systems and was initiated in FIRE-ENGINE, an Engineering Systems project approved by MIT Portugal, under which he was a visiting student. Before returning to university, he was a Project Manager and later took over the direction of companies like Seara.com and Chip7 S.A
Areas of interest:
Data Analysis, Stochastic Simulation, Optimization with Uncertainty, Risk Communication, Public Policy Analys
