Jierui Zuo
Incoming Information Systems PhD Student | AI and Sequential Decision-Making
April 5th, 2026 at Mutianyu section of the Great Wall, Beijing
I am an senior undergraduate student at Department of Management Science and Engineering at Tsinghua University. And I will join University of Washington as a PhD student in Information Systems this fall.
I am working at the intersection of AI, learning, and decision-making. My work spans sequential decision-making, bandits, stochastic systems, and intelligent decision support, with a focus on building rigorous methods that connect theory with emerging AI systems.
More broadly, I am interested in bridging mathematically grounded research with practical questions in intelligent systems, business, operations, and human-AI collaboration.
During my undergraduate study, I worked with Prof. Hanzhang Qin and Prof Ruihao Zhu on Multi-arm Bandits. And I worked on Experiment Design for Online Scheduling with Prof. Jinglong Zhao and Prof. Zijie Zhou. I also worked closely with Prof. Bo Li.
