Overview
This specialisation within the Econometrics and Operations Research master's builds deeper knowledge of operations research, culminating in a thesis that contributes to current research in the field. Some teaching is delivered through a nationwide collaboration of mathematics-of-operations-research specialists based at universities across the Netherlands. Alongside the theory covered in core courses, students build deeper insight into the mathematics underlying operations-research models and methods and gain hands-on experience turning models and methods, including ones they design themselves, into practical code.
