Please find below a 5-month internship offer at LIMOS (Université Clermont
Auvergne), starting from April 2026.
Internship title: Pickup and Delivery Problem for a Remanufacturing Plant
Duration: 5 months
Period: Starting April 2026
Context: This internship is part of a research project focused on an
integrated problem involving the collection, repair, and delivery of
products in a remanufacturing context, a crucial component of the circular
economy. The objective is to study a simplified version of the
Remanufacturing Pickup and Delivery Inventory Routing Problem (R-PDIRP),
including:
- the collection of products from customers,
- their repair under capacity constraints,
- and their final delivery.
The work includes a literature review, instance generation, and the
sequential resolution of subproblems using mathematical modeling and/or
heuristics.
Desired profile:
- Master's student (or equivalent) in computer science, industrial
engineering, or a related field;
- Strong programming skills (C++, Python, or Java);
- Good knowledge of mathematical modeling (MIP) and heuristic design.
The internship may lead to a PhD opportunity.
Applications (CV + motivation letter + transcript of records) should be
sent to: Philippe Lacomme (philippe.lacomme@uca.fr) and Katyanne Farias (
katyanne.farias_de_araujo@uca.fr).
Please feel free to share this offer with potentially interested students.
Best regards,
