Operations Research Minor

*Not a baccalaureate degree program

The abundance of data has created the need for data science that allows models to run off vast amounts of available data and thereby optimize performance of the system. The field of operations research is central to data sciences. It is an analytical field that is concerned with modeling and optimization of systems. Having the depth of coursework associated with this minor, as well as a formal credential in this area, will enhance our graduates' knowledge of operations research and their ability to obtain employment in related fields.
