About Me

Hi! My name is Iain Dunning

I’m a PhD student in the Operations Research Center at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Cambridge, Massachusetts. I started here in September 2011.

 Before that, I studied Engineering Science at the University of Auckland in Auckland, New Zealand. I was there from early 2007 to late 2010.

I’m interested in problem solving – whether its problems that you can solve with mathematics (modelling, optimization, probability, …), making things (programming, hacks (the MIT kind), ….), working with people (entrepreneurship, volunteering, …), or everything all together!

If you’d like to know more about where I’ve worked and studied, checked out my profile on LinkedIn.

If you want to get in touch with me, you can email me at idunning AT mit DOT edu.

(you can also judge my music taste/recommend me something to listen to at my Last.fm page!)
