Peter Berling has a long experience as lecturer in logistics and supply chain management on all academic levels. He is involved in teaching at the School of Business and Economics at Linnaeus University, the Engineering School at Lund University (Sweden), Zaragoza Logistics Center (Spain) and as a guest lecturer at various schools around Europe.
Peter’s research belongs to the general field of OR/MS. His focus is on inventory control, specifically multi-echelon inventory control and on the intersect between finance and operations. His research results has been published in journals such as Management Science, Operations Research, Production and Operations Management, EJOR, IJPR, IJPE and Omega.
