Mathematical Programming Optimization (including linear, nonlinear, network, discrete, combinatorial, multi-objective programming, scheduling, and project, program and campaign planning).
Students considering a program in Operations Research should consult the Department
regarding their general research interests before making decisions regarding their
program. It is imperative (particularly for Ph.D. students) that the research
interest is well supported to ensure timely completion of the degree.
Synergism with Air Force and other DOD organizations leading to sponsored,
cooperative research efforts is encouraged. Such cooperative efforts lead to
research results that are directly related to ongoing activities in the military
operations research community. Cooperative research with external sponsoring
agencies may also lead toward subsequent assignment at the sponsoring office
upon the candidate's degree completion.
