Course Description
Management science course combines elements of management and decision-making with mathematical and quantitative analysis. It involves the use of mathematical models and methods to solve problems and make decisions in a variety of settings, including business, government, and non-profit organizations. The course covers topics such as optimization, forecasting, decision analysis, and simulation, and may also include elements of computer programming and data analysis. The goal of the course is to provide students with the skills and knowledge they need to analyze complex problems and make effective decisions using quantitative methods.
