Pascal Wissink is assistant professor at the department of Operations Analytics of the School of Business and Economics, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam.
Pascal obtained his bachelor's (2011) and master's (2013) degrees in Econometrics and Operational Research from the Erasmus University in Rotterdam, and a PhD degree (2019) in Management Science and Business Economics from the University of Edinburgh. Prior to joining the VU, he worked as a scientist and project manager at TNO (The Netherlands Organisation for Applied Scientific Research) from 2015 to 2019.
Pascal specialises in topics at the cutting edge of disruption risk and optimisation: He studies optimisation challenges in financial, supply and transportation networks where failure uncertainty plays a substantial role and exploits data analytics to assess the stability of optimal solutions. His current line of research focuses on the resilience of optimal decisions in networks prone to percolation. For example, the impact of correlated random failures on the liquidity of the ridesharing economy, sustainable investments in the aluminium industry or the CVaR of evacuation decisions. Applications that he considers often feature sustainability challenges. His research interests include copulas, stochastic processes and multi-stage methods in stochastic and robust optimisation.
Pascal lectured several courses at the undergraduate and postgraduate level including Statistics for Finance, Computing for Business, Developing Skills For Business Leadership, and Supply Chain Management. He is currently coordinator of Business Processes (BSc Bedrijfskunde) and Process Analytics (PGDip in Business Analytics and Data Science) courses and thesis coordinator of the MSc programme in Transport and Supply Chain Management. He also teaches and supervises students from those programmes.
