MS/OR - Concentration Areas
Students enrolled in the M.S. in OR program may construct concentration areas by choosing electives from among special groupings. The five concentrations currently available are: Optimization, Stochastic Modeling, Decision Analysis, Military Operations Research and Financial Engineering. Students can also work with their advisors to devise their own set of electives.The selections must be approved by the advisor and must include at least one deterministic methods and at least one stochastic methods course.
Optimization (OPT)
Students opting to concentrate in Optimization
must complete three courses from OR 640, 641, 642, 643, 644, 682, and
741. The remaining two courses (out of the full requirement of 10) will be chosen with the written concurrence
of the advisor. They should be tailored to the student's interest and must include at least one stochastic methods course.
Stochastic Models (STM)
Students concentrating in Stochastic
Models must complete three
courses from OR 645, 647, 674, 677, 719, SYST 664 and either STAT 554 or STAT 663. The remaining two courses are
chosen with the written concurrence of the student's advisor and must include at least one deterministic methods course.
Decision Analysis (DA)
Students concentrating in Decision Analysis must complete OR 671 and 681
and SYST 664. The remaining two electives must include one
deterministic methods course and one stochastic methods course.
Military Operations Research (MOR)
Students concentrating in Military Operations Research must complete OR 651, 652 and SYST
683. The remaining two courses must include one stochastic methods course and one deterministic methods course.
Financial Engineering (FNNE)
Students concentrating in Financial Engineering must complete OR 588 and 688 and one course from OR 645, 671, 681 and 682. The remaining two electives must include one
deterministic methods course and one stochastic methods course.
