This is the summarized version of the course syllabus, which is subject to change.
The powers of mathematical modeling are now within reach to many. Several companies may be using them today to gain a competitive advantage and tomorrow they will use them to survive the harsh competitive environment. The course aims to refine and enhance student’s ability to think critically and develop practical and analytical skills needed to utilize some of the most frequently used mathematical models in business. Through real-world case studies, students will have an opportunity to learn and experience a variety of issues, problems and pitfalls one can have throughout the modeling process.
