The Bachelor of Science in Business Engineering and Management Science program prepares students with an interest and aptitude in STEM to be leaders in an increasingly data- and technology-driven business world. Unlike traditional programs that focus on case studies and best practices, this quantitative business program relies on intentional, deep, scientific analyses. After a solid grounding in math and engineering fundamentals, students are trained in the latest quantitative business tools, with a focus on two core areas: data analytics and operations research, and business principles. The program offers five specialization tracks, from which students can choose two: business analytics, financial engineering, artificial intelligence and machine learning, advanced manufacturing and technology management.
Program Objectives
Upon completion of the degree, students will be able to:
- Identify, access, validate, and visualize relevant data to inform business decisions.
- Demonstrate proficiency with deterministic and stochastic analytical tools.
- Demonstrate mastery of business principles.
- Build models and apply quantitative tools to inform decisions about business strategy and operations.
- Communicate effectively in a professional context in a variety of formats.
- Identify and propose solutions to ethical issues in business decision-making.
- Demonstrate expertise in their track areas of choice.
