Per-Olov Lindberg was born in Stockholm on February 20, 1942. He received a civilingenjörs examen in Engineering Physics at KTH in 1967 and a PhD in Optimization Theory at KTH in 1975.

He served as a Systems Analyst at Datema in 1967--68. From 1968 to 1974 he served as a Research Assistant at the Department of Mathematics at KTH, on Transportation Research Grants. From 1975 to 1979 he was Assistant Professor of Optimization and Systems Theory at KTH. From 1980 he has been Associate Professor at KTH. He also has served as Acting Professor on several instances, including the three year period Fall 1980--Spring 1983.

Lindberg was a board member of the Swedish OR Association 1974--1980. He has served on the board of the School of Computer Science at KTH and is presently serving at the boards of the Schools of Vehicle Engineering and Industrial Engineering.

Lindberg was visiting professor at Sloan School of Management, MIT, during the Spring Semester 1988. He has also been Visiting Scholar at Stanford University and University of Washington. He has recently been appointed Adjunct Professor at University of Florida. Lindberg is on the editorial board of Computational Optimization and Applications.

Lindberg's research interests include most areas of Mathematical Programming and its applications, including Linear, Nonlinear, Dynamic and Integer Programming, Convexity and Duality, Inventory Control and Random Utility Models. He has guided six students to a PhD and four for a Licentiate Degree. Furthermore he has guided well over 100 students for an Engineering Master's Thesis (examensarbete).
