Hours: 4
This multidisciplinary course combining business, mathematics, and computer science topics, builds on the concepts introduced in the business statistics prerequisite and introduces the basic concepts of model building and its role in rational decision-making. In this course, the student acquires knowledge of specific modeling techniques and their practical application, such as linear programming and simulation. The student will take an analytic view of decision-making by formalizing trade-offs, specifying constraints, providing for uncertainty and performing sensitivity analysis. Prerequisites Elementary Statistics (MATH 230).
