Minor Program in Operational Research
The essential quality of operational research derives from the use of scientific inquiry into complex techno-economical systems, complemented by mathematical modeling which emphasizes both goal-seeking and open-systems aspects. It has found widespread applications in all sectors of the government and the industry. The Operational Research Minor Program aims to provide an understanding of the techniques and methods of operational research as they are used in organizational decision making. It will be of benefit to students who want to develop a more focused and systematic view of work organization and management.
