Key details
Dr Azar MahmoumGonbadi
Lecturer in Business Operations and Supply Chain Management
Azar, with a background in industrial engineering, has recently taken on the role of Lecturer in Business Operations and Supply Chain Management at the University of Greenwich. Her PhD thesis focused on the development of a mathematical modelling toolkit aimed at accelerating the shift towards a Circular Economy. Her research has received funding from the European Commission’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the following projects: Marie Skłodowska-Curie Innovative Training Networks (H2020-MSCA-ITN-2018) scheme, grant agreement number 814247 (ReTraCE project); H2020-SC5-2020-2 scheme, Grant Agreement 101003491 (JUST2CE project).
