About the course

As a two- or three-semester professional degree program, the ORIE M.Eng. has become highly valued in the marketplace and continues to be an attractive option for well-prepared undergraduates in Operations Research, Industrial Engineering, Mathematics, Finance, and many other quantitative disciplines.The main objectives of every MEng program at Cornell are to advance the breadth and depth of our students? technical knowledge and to provide students with opportunities to synthesize and apply this knowledge in a real-world environment. In ORIE, the technical tools of primary importance are mathematical modeling and the application of quantitative techniques instilled within the fields of optimization, probability, stochastic processes, statistics, and simulation. The areas of application for these tools are virtually limitless, but ORIE students generally apply their knowledge to the design, operation, and improvement of business systems.

　　The keystone of the Strategic Operations Concentration (SO) is the Strategic Operations Immersion (SOI) course offered by the Johnson Graduate School of Management.This 15-credit-hour intensive ?supercourse? occupies the entire spring semester. SO provides a comprehensive treatment of production management, including product design, logistics, quality control, corporate organization, employee organization and compensation, marketing, and globalization. Students and faculty from the College of Engineering, the Johnson Graduate School of Management, and the School of Industrial and Labor Relations participate. For scheduling reasons, students taking the SO concentration frequently need to spend an extra summer at Cornell in order to complete the ORIE MEng degree requirements. Typically, a student must already have a strong background in operations research and/or relevant professional experience to be admitted to the SO concentration.
