Date: September 16 – 18, 2026
Venue: Instituto Superior Técnico, Lisboa, Portugal
We would like to invite you to the 7th International Conference on Engineering Optimization (ENGOPT 2026). The conference will be hosted by Instituto Superior Técnico, University of Lisbon, Portugal, from 16 to 18 of September 2026.
The primary objective of EngOpt conferences is to periodically bring together engineers, applied mathematicians, and computer scientists working on research, development, and practical applications of optimization methods in all engineering disciplines and applied sciences.
About EngOpt 2026
A forum for Engineers, Mathematicians and Computer Scientists to share research and innovations, promoting interdisciplinary activities in all fields of Engineering Optimisation.
The primary goal of the EngOpt conference series is to periodically bring together engineers, applied mathematicians, and computer scientists working on research, development, and practical application of optimisation methods in all engineering disciplines and the applied sciences.
The first International Conference on Engineering Optimisation took place in 2008 in Rio de Janeiro, and the second one was held in Lisbon in 2010. In 2012, EngOpt returned to Rio de Janeiro and in 2014 to Lisbon. In 2016, it was held in Foz do Iguassu, Brazil, and in 2018 it returned to Lisbon. All conferences were very successful in terms of the number and quality of presentations.
The decision to restart the organisation of this conference series is motivated by the growing scientific importance and the wide-ranging impact on societal developments that optimisation continues to have.
The call for abstracts is now open.
The main conference themes are (but are not restricted to):
– Design Optimization and Inverse Problems
– Numerical and Computational Techniques
– Applications and Case Studies
– Emerging and Interdisciplinary Topics
– Education in Optimization
Important Dates
– Deadline for abstract submission: 16 Mar 2026
– Acceptance notification: 14 Apr 2026
– Deadline for paper submission: 01 Jun 2026 (paper submission is not mandatory)
– Early registration: 11 May 2026
– Deadline for Authors Registration: 01 Jun 2026
