The University of Mauritius is offering an MPhil/PhD Scholarship as part of the funding provided by the Higher Education Commission for the project titled “A mesoscopic simulator for the optimization of Light Rail Transit Systems”.

Programme Objectives:-

One of the objectives set for the aforementioned project is to conduct PhD level research for the development of a novel multi-objective nature-inspired model/algorithm for the optimisation of operations (scheduling, cost, emission, Light Rail Vehicle Motion, passenger flows at stations) for light rail transit (LRT) systems.
The beneficiary of this scholarship will have to undertake the following core activities during his/her MPhil/PhD study:
- Carry out profound literature reviews in the field of multi-objective optimisation algorithms, Nature Inspired
- algorithm, Constrained Optimisation, Computational Intelligence, and light rail transit.
- Conduct experimentations, observations, and surveys.
- Analyse models, datasets and simulation results.
- Develop, test and validate a novel optimisation algorithm/model for LRT operations.
- Publish research papers in internationally peer-reviewed journals during the scholarship.
- Do oral presentations at seminars/workshops/conferences.
- Prepare and submit progress reports, MPhil transfer report and PhD Thesis.
