Management sciences is a broad interdisciplinary study of problem solving and decision making in human organisations. It uses a combination of analytical models and behavioural sciences to address societies' most complex problems. Our students learn traditional skills in supply chain management and optimisations while simultaneously being exposed to cutting-edge research in human computer interaction, energy management, and innovation entrepreneurship. With three main specialisations students and faculty can focus their education and research on the skill set best suited to them, their interests, and their future goals. The department offers an undergraduate degree in management engineering as well as an option in management sciences for students enrolled in another engineering undergraduate program. As with all engineering programs at Waterloo, every undergraduate student takes part in cooperative study with up to six, 4-month work terms conducted between academic study terms. Their practical experience complements and reinforces in-class learning, providing students with a solid and well-grounded education.<br><br>The Doctor of Philosopy (Ph.D.) degree program in Management Sciences is for advanced graduate students with a strong research interest in the management sciences. Students in the Ph.D. program are expected to complete several courses (depending on prior coursework), pass a comprehensive exam, and submit a Ph.D. thesis of independent and original work. The program takes most students four to five years of full-time study.<br><br>Applied operations research at the Department of Management Sciences provides quantitative tools to model complex decision making problems in manufacturing and service industries in modern global economy. Our faculty are experts in optimization, stochastic processes, Markov decision processes, data analytics, and decisions analysis with focus areas in health care, supply chain management and logistics, revenue management and pricing, energy, and manufacturing.
