Prescriptive analytics involves the use of data, mathematical models, and algorithms to identify optimal solutions for achieving organizational goals. This process builds on descriptive and predictive analytics, going beyond the interpretation of past events and the forecasting of future scenarios to also provide advice on the most effective actions to meet business objectives. Students acquire the skills to convert complex business problems into mathematical models, and employ Python programming and commercial solvers to derive optimal decisions. Evaluation components will consist of assignments, case studies, group projects, and two midterm exams. Prerequisites: OM 502.
