Doctoral students pick one of three operations research areas, including applied probability and statistics and manufacturing systems engineering. The first area-based track is described through applications in science, finance and engineering. Applied probability and statistics covers stochastic processes in finance, queuing, traffic and inventory theory, along with statistical decision and reliability methods.
Manufacturing systems engineering analyzes complex production and distribution systems, such as inventory policies across multiple stages. The program is delivered in person in Ithaca, with progress reviews beginning in the second year and a minimum of six semesters.
Prospective applicants should check with the graduate field office and the Cornell Graduate School about admission requirements, funding and application timelines, because this catalog entry concentrates on the academic content and milestones of the degree rather than on costs or deadlines.
