FEATURED COURSE
ORIE 5530
Modeling Under Uncertainty
Credits 3
In this course, we will learn how to model randomness, analyze its impact and make optimal decisions when it is present. We will cover stochastic modeling techniques, statistical principles, simulation, and decision-making under uncertainty. Using applications, we will demonstrate how we can use statistical principles to gain insight from data generated by systems with randomness. We will use simulation models...
