Students will have the opportunity to focus on problems where resources need to be allocated effectively in complex, dynamic, and uncertain conditions. 

Students will start with a solid foundation in math, including combinatorics, linear optimization, modeling, scheduling, forecasting, decision theory, and computer simulation. On top of that, students will add courses in economics, business, and management science, in addition to the ability to gain paid work experience through co-op. 

After first year, students will choose one of two specializations: Operations Research or Business.

When students graduate, they will have all kinds of career options. They might enhance scheduling for airline crews and sports games, improve production and distribution efficiency for manufacturing companies, increase service quality and efficiency in healthcare administration, or develop sophisticated tools for finance and investments.
