Biographie

Laoucine Kerbache est titulaire d'un PhD en génie industriel et recherche opérationnelle (Université du Massachusetts, USA, 1984) qui traite de l'optimisation des flux en milieu industriel et d'une Habilitation à Diriger des Recherches (HDR) obtenue en 2000 à l'université de Nantes. Il est aussi titulaire d'un Master of Science (MSc., 1981) et d'un Bachelor of Science (BSc., 1979) dans le même domaine obtenus à l'Université du Massachusetts (une partie du cursus fait à l'Université de Syracuse (USA)).

Il a été au préalable à l'ESC-Rennes en tant que : Directeur de la Pédagogie (1999-2000) et des Relations Internationales (1996-2000), Directeur de la recherche (1992-1998), Directeur de l'Executive MBA (1991-1995), ainsi que Professeur (1990-2000) de gestion de production/logistique et techniques quantitatives.

Ses recherches et ses publications sont centrées autour du développement de modèles d'optimisation pour des problèmes de management industriel et logistique. Il est directeur de thèse de doctorants à l'Open University (UK). Il présente régulièrement ses travaux lors de congrès en Europe et en Amérique du Nord.
Il est l'auteur ou coauteur de nombreuses publications dans des revues académiques internationales telles que : European Journal of Operational Research, Operations Research and Computers, Gestion 2000 , Material Flow, etc. Par ailleurs, il est membre de plusieurs comités de lecture.
Il a intervenu, en tant que professeur invité, dans plusieurs programmes à l'étranger : Helsinki School of Business and Economics, Tashkent State University of Economics, University of World Economics and Diplomacy (Ouzbekistan), Université de Dniepropetrovsk (Ukraine), Ecole Nationale Polytechnique d'Alger, Université du Massachusetts (année sabbatique), etc. Il a aussi fait des missions de conseil et d'ingénierie pédagogique pour le compte de plusieurs organisations telles que : ONUDI, BIT, UE, FNEGE, etc.
