MATH 545 - Deterministic Models in Operations Research

Credits: 3
Prerequisite: Two semesters of calculus and one semester of linear algebra.
Dual-Listed Class: Dual-Listed Class
Description: An introductory course on using the basic tools of solving deterministic models in operations research. Topics include optimization techniques and applications such as linear programming, nonlinear and dynamic programming, transportation models, and network models. In addition, sensitivity analysis, duality, simplex methods, and integer programming are discussed. Students will use technology to solve problems and interpret the results.
