MGT-483: Optimal decision makingThis course introduces the theory and applications of optimization. We develop tools and concepts of optimization and decision analysis that enable managers in manufacturing, service operations, marke
MGT-418: Convex optimizationThis course introduces the theory and application of modern convex optimization from an engineering perspective.
FIN-414: Optimization methodsThis course presents the problem of static optimization, with and without (equality and inequality) constraints, both from the theoretical (optimality conditions) and methodological (algorithms) point
MATH-329: Continuous optimizationThis course introduces students to continuous, nonlinear optimization. We study the theory of optimization with continuous variables (with full proofs), and we analyze and implement important algorith
MATH-261: Discrete optimizationThis course is an introduction to linear and discrete optimization.
Warning: This is a mathematics course! While much of the course will be algorithmic in nature, you will still need to be able to p
EE-568: Reinforcement learningThis course describes theory and methods for Reinforcement Learning (RL), which revolves around decision making under uncertainty. The course covers classic algorithms in RL as well as recent algorith
MATH-351: Advanced numerical analysis IIThe student will learn state-of-the-art algorithms for solving differential equations. The analysis and implementation of these algorithms will be discussed in some detail.
