IAP 2004 Activity


What Is Operations Research? What Is Management Science?
John Little, Jim Orlin
Wed Jan 14, Fri Jan 16, 10:30am-12:00pm, 2-105

No enrollment limit, no advance sign up
Participants welcome at individual sessions (series)

Do you enjoy mathematics and computers? Would you like to apply your skills to business, government, and non-profit institutions? Then come and learn about the fields of operations research and management science, a science for improving the decisions of organizations. These fields typically use data, mathematical models, and computer-based information systems. Intended for undergraduates and graduate students considering OR/MS as a field of study. The second session will be followed by a lunch in E40-106. Participants welcome at individual sessions but attendance at both sessions is encouraged.
