Teaching:
I have taken a lead role in developing the courses on decision support systems and have coauthored two textbooks:
- "Developing Spreadsheet-Based Decision Support Systems," Michelle H. Seref, Ravindra K. Ahuja, and Wayne L. Winston, Dynamic Ideas, 2007.
- “Developing Web-Enabled Decision Support Systems,” Abhijit A. Pol and Ravindra K. Ahuja, Dynamic Ideas, 2007.
While teaching courses, I strive for proper organization of material and clarity of presentation. One of my strengths is to make difficult concepts simple and understandable to most students. I encourage my students to get involved, and I do it by asking questions and eliciting answers from them. I am highly accessible to students during off-lecture hours and always prepared to clarify their doubts and to alleviate their difficulties. I teach most of my courses using PowerPoint slides and I supplement it by showing some examples on the blackboard.
In my entire professional career, I have taught the following additional courses:
- Operations Research for Management
- Introduction to Management Science
- Introduction to Computing and Programming Languages
- Network Flow Algorithms
- Network Optimization
- Combinatorial Optimization
- Database Management Systems
- Design of Production Systems
- Operations Management
