How to join the OPL Lab

International collaboration

We are willing to collaborate with researchers from other research groups. If you want to collaborate with one of our projects or invite us to collaborate in your project, you may get in contact with one of our principal investigators, Prof. Anselmo R. Pitombeira Neto and Bruno A. Prata. Take a look at our current projects and publications. We currently do not offer any post-doc position.

Graduate and undergraduate students

Students from international universities may apply for an academic mobility stay at UFC. Knowledge of Portuguese is not required to get involved in research activities in OPL Lab, since our internal seminars may be held in English.

You may attend lectures in the Graduate Program in Modelling and Quantitative Methods, or in the Major on Industrial Engineering (undergraduate course), although lectures are currently taught only in Portuguese.

If you are pursuing a master's or doctorate in any UFC program or other Brazilian university, and you would like to collaborate with any of our projects as part of your research or participate in our internal seminars, you may get in contact by email or directly with one of our principal investigators. Students from UFC are elligible to institutional scholarship programs.
