Management Science and Engineering (BS)
专业详情
The mission of the undergraduate program in Management Science and Engineering is to provide students with the fundamentals of engineering systems analysis so that they are able to plan, design, and implement complex economic and technical management systems. The program builds on foundational courses in calculus and linear algebra. Students complete core courses in mathematical modeling, systems analysis, organization theory, optimization, probability, statistics, ethics, computer science, and economics, leading to a capstone senior project. Through the core, students in the program are exposed to the breadth of faculty interests and prepared to study different areas of application of the department’s methodologies. To personalize their exploration, students select additional courses from different application areas of the department, with greater emphasis in one of them. The major is designed to allow a student to explore all three undergraduate areas of the department in greater depth.
- Finance and Decision: focuses on the design and analysis of financial and strategic plans.
- Operations and Analytics: focuses on algorithms, theory, and the design and analysis of manufacturing, production, and service systems.
- Organizations, Technology, and Policy: focuses on understanding, design, and analysis of organizations and public policy, particularly technology-based issues.
The major prepares students for a variety of career paths, including investment banking, management consulting, facilities and process management, or for graduate school in industrial engineering, operations research, business, economics, law, medicine, or public policy.
