3 unit(s)

Prerequisite(s): Enrolment in the PhD Program or permission of the instructor.

This course builds on the material covered in MS1. However, in this course the primary emphasis will be on developing Ph.D. students’ research skills in their particular area of interest. This will be achieved by focussing on an in-depth study of specific management science technique(s) (e.g., game theory or dynamic programming) as applied to the solution of problems in an area of application (e.g., revenue management) that may be of interest to the student.
