Oliver Schütze received a PhD in Mathematics from the University of Paderborn, Germany, in 2004.
He is currently professor at the Cinvestav-IPN in Mexico City, Mexico. His research interests focus on numerical and evolutionary optimization where he utilizes in many cases elements from dynamical systems theory.
He has co-authored more than 160 publications including 2 monographic books, 5 text books and 13 edited books.
During his career he received several prices and awards. For instance, he is co-author of two papers that won the IEEE CIS Outstanding Paper Award (for the IEEE TEC papers of 2010 and 2012). He is Editor-in-Chief of the journal Mathematical and Computational Applications, and member of the Editorial Board for Applied Soft Computing, Computational Optimization and Applications, Engineering Optimization, and IEEE Transactions on Evolutionary Computation. He is founder and Series Chair of the Numerical and Evolutionary Optimization (NEO) workshop series, https://neo.cinvestav.mx
