# Practical Internship: Reinforcement Learning in Logistics

Working at Boskalis is about creating new horizons and sustainable solutions. In a world where population growth, an increase of global trade, demand for (new) energy and climate change are driving forces, we challenge you to make your mark in finding innovative and relevant solutions for complex infrastructural and marine projects.

These projects require large quantities of soil to be excavated, transported and reused. Planning these soil flows efficiently can reduce both project costs and emissions. We have developed an in-house soil-flow optimization tool for dike construction projects. Soil-flow planning is a complex problem involving different soil classes, quantities, locations and timing constraints. Engineers need to determine when and where excavated soils should be reused, stored, transported, sold or disposed of while meeting the project's construction requirements and optimizing objectives such as cost, transp
