M.S. Engineering Management Systems
The Master of Science program in Engineering Management Systems (EMS) provides students with a background (30 points; 33 points if no background in probability and statistics) that emphasizes both technology and management perspectives in solving problems, making decisions, and managing risks in complex systems. Students pursuing this degree program are provided with a rigorous exposure to deterministic optimization and stochastic modeling, a basic coverage of applications in the areas of operations engineering and management, and an in-depth coverage of applications.
Graduates from this program are expected to assume
positions as business analysts in logistics, supply chain, revenue management,
and consulting firms, and as financial analysts in risk-management departments
of investment banks, hedge funds, and credit-card and insurance firms.
Requirements
IEOR E4004: Intro to OR: Deterministic Models
IEOR E4106: Intro to OR: Stochastic Models
IEOR E4111: Operations Consulting
(SIEO W4150: Introduction to Probability and Statistics must be taken if student have not taken the equivalent previously)
The Department requires that students in the Program achieve grades of B- or higher in each of the fundamental core courses (IEOR E4004 and IEOR E4106).
Poor performance in these courses is indicative of inadequate preparation and is very likely to lead to serious problems in completing the Program. In addition, students must maintain a cumulative GPA equivalent to a B- during every term enrolled. Students failing to meet these criteria may be asked to withdraw from his/her Program.
