- If students are interested in a career-defining the rules of the game of industry and production practice by having a deep understanding of the possibilities of cutting-edge techniques, if they want to pursue an academic career, or if they just love the mathematics of operations research, then the Operations Research Theory specialization is for them. It offers students deeper knowledge and understanding of this research area and eventually, through the thesis, participate in front-line research in operations research.
- Next to the core courses of the program, lectures are provided through the Dutch Network on the Mathematics of Operations Research, a collaboration of the top researchers from throughout the Netherlands. This way, the specialization offers the opportunity of learning from a wide range of leading researchers in the field.
- The specialization challenges students to deepen their knowledge and understanding of the mathematics behind Operations Research models and methods so that they will be able to contribute to the further development of the field. Next to the theory in the core courses, students will also get hands-on experience in turning the models and methods they learn, or design themselves, into practical code.
