A course on operations research modeling concepts with emphasis on linear programming; topics include: linear programming, network programming, and project management.
This course is an introduction to an operations-research approach to engineering decision-making. It includes the formulation, solution, interpretation, and implementation of mathematical models such as linear programming (LP), integer programming (IP), project management (PM), and network problems. Upon completion of the course, students will be able to develop and formulate a variety of optimization problems for engineering and economic systems, determine optimal solutions, and present managerial recommendations based on optimal solutions and sensitivity analysis.

The course provides a rigorous introduction to probability theory and a study of the most important random processes in some depth. There are two main aims:
1. To provide a thorough account of basic probability,
2. To discuss important random processes in depth with applications relevant to engineering management in general, which includes discrete- and continuous-time Markov chains, and an introduction to queueing systems.
This course assumes basic knowledge of mathematics and differential and integral calculus. It also requires knowledge of basic probability.

Today's organizations are more cognizant of the need to approach their initiatives and development activities from a project management perspective; as such undertakings are conceived with desired targets of scope, budget, and time for implementation. Construction projects, with the advancements of design, materials, and technology of construction, introduce a level of complexity that is not normally evident in other types of projects. This course aims at addressing project management principles as applied to the construction context and serves the interest of students/professionals seeking to embark on project management responsibilities in the consulting and contracting sectors.
