June 3-6, 2025 (regular workshop)

University of Minnesota

Summer School

MIP 2025 will host the second MIP summer school on Monday, June 2, 2025 (the day immediately preceding the start of the regular workshop).

Attendees of the summer school are required to register for the MIP workshop. There will be no additional fees for the summer school.

Summer School Speakers

Philipp Christophel (SAS) – Implementing Numerical Optimization Algorithms

TBD

Ricardo Fukasawa (University of Waterloo) – Column generation and IP (from textbook to practice)

TBD

Andrés Gómez (University of Southern California) – Methodologies and Algorithms for Structured Mixed-Integer Nonlinear Optimization

Mixed-integer nonlinear optimization problems (MINLPs) are increasingly central to applications in machine learning, model predictive control, energy systems, finance, and beyond. Despite significant advances in MINLP theory and algorithms over the past two decades, deploying these methods to solve complex, real-world problems remains a formidable challenge. In this tutorial, we will survey recent methodologies, algorithms, and theoretical developments that have demonstrated practical success in solving structured MINLPs. We will also discuss open challenges, limitations of current approaches, and promising directions for future research.
