BDA 662 Quant Mthds & Operations Rsch

Operations Research is a very important area of study, which tracks its roots to business applications. It combines the three broad disciplines of mathematics, computer science, and business applications. This course will formally develop the ideas of developing, analyzing, and validating mathematical models for decision problems and their systematic solution. The course will involve programming and mathematical analysis. The goal of this course is to introduce students to concepts and computational techniques used by large organizations (such as the military, big business, and major universities) to most efficiently manage resources, maximize profits, and/or minimize costs. Prerequisite: BDA 500.
