| Description | Management Sciences is an academic department within the Faculty of Engineering that offers an undergraduate Bachelor of Applied Science (BASc) degree in management engineering plus an undergraduate option in management sciences, and both research and course-based graduate degree programs.
Management Sciences is a broad interdisciplinary study of problem solving and decision making in human organizations. It uses a combination of analytical models and behavioural sciences to address societies' most complex problems. Conducting meaningful research that will impact industries and economies, our students and faculty work under three core areas of specialization: applied operations research, information systems and management of technology. | | |
