    Core MSO301 Operations Research 3 0 0 9

    Course Objective
    In this course, one will be introduced to the decision-making process, optimization technique, linear
    programming model, transportation and assignment problems, and queuing model using popular
    business or industry problems. The goal of this course is to get learners familiar with the goals,
    objectives, challenges, and constraint of the organization and the paradigms in creating a value for the
    organization and customer to improve return on investment.
    Learning Outcomes
     Build a culture of making informed decision process that facilitate multiple perspectives using
    mathematical modelling techniques.
     To develop a brief understanding about the various mathematical techniques and understand
    the dynamics to decide which one to use and how for a particular problem.
     To understand the basics of Linear Programming model, simplex algorithm and optimization
    technique.
     To understand the application and importance of queuing model.
