Operations Research

Operations Research, also known as Management Science, is a field that uses mathematical and analytical methods to help organizations make better decisions and optimize their operations. It involves applying scientific principles to complex problems, often involving large datasets and systems to find the most efficient and effective solutions.

Operations Research is widely applied in logistics and transportation, supply chain management, production and manufacturing, environment and energy. Beyond all kinds of engineering applications, it is successfully used in pricing and revenue management, financial management and investment, as well as healthcare management and for the management and recovery of disasters and catastrophes.
