Regression analysis: multiple linear regression, diagnostics, and variable selection. Forecasting: exponential smoothing techniques and autoregressive moving average models.

Covers modeling of discrete-event dynamic systems and introduces methods for using these models to solve engineering design and analysis problems.

Senior design project requiring student to formulate a project plan with an off-campus enterprise. Includes specific milestones, targets, and evaluation criteria.

Topics include modeling with networks and graphs; linear, nonlinear, and integer programming, construction of models employing modern modeling languages; and general solution strategies.
