Summer 2022 MATH 428: Principles of Operations Research - ACE 10 Course!

This summer, Professor Steven Cohn will be teaching MATH 428: Principles of Operations Research during the First 5-Week Session, and the MATH 428 course will fulfill your ACE 10 learning outcome! The current course schedule for the Summer 2022 semester is every weekday at 11:00 am to 12:35 pm during the First 5-Week Session (Monday, June 6th to Friday, July 8th).

The MATH 428 course uses applications of Mathematics to address real world problems. Operations Research is a discipline that deals with the development and application of advanced analytical methods to improve decision-making. The MATH 428 course specifically covers the introduction to techniques and applications of operations research, which includes linear programming (i.e., linear and dynamic optimization), queueing theory, decision analysis, network analysis, and simulation. The main objectives for the course will be to cover linear and dynamic programming and queueing theory and then covering the other topics as time allows.

The MATH 428: Principles of Operations Research course has prerequisites of MATH 314: Linear Algebra AND STAT 380: Statistics and Applications or MECH 321: Engineering Statistics and Data Analysis. Grades of C, Pass, or better are assumed in the prerequisite courses.

You can contact Professor Steven Cohn if you have additional questions about the MATH 428 course this summer.
