He was also visiting faculty at the University of Waterloo, Canada, in 2012. He taught Operations Research, Optimization Modelling, Data Envelopment Analysis, Managerial Problem Solving, and other related courses in different full-time programs at IIM Calcutta.
Prof. Singh obtained his B.Sc. (Hons.) in Mathematics, M.Sc., & Ph.D. in Operational Research from the University of Delhi. He has been the Gold Medalist both in B.Sc. (Hons.) & M.Sc. He has also been first class first in all school examinations. He qualified UGC-JRF in Mathematical Sciences.
Prof. Singh’sprimary research interests include Data Envelopment Analysis, Mathematical Programming, Sports Modelling,Performance Evaluation of Education Sector, Distribution & Vehicle Routing, Bi-level Programming, Environmental Efficiency, & Fuzzy Optimization. His research has been continuously published in internationally reputed journals such as European Journal of Operational Research, Annals of Operations Research, Journal of the Operational Research Society, International Journal of Production Research, Applied Mathematics & Computation, Evaluation & Program Planning, RAIRO-Operations Research, to name a few. He has presented his research work in reputed International Conferences (like, EURO, INFORMS, IFORS, APORS, IDEA) in several countries in Europe, Asia, South East Asia, America, & Middle East.
