GBUS 8631 - Optimization

Effective Start Date: 11/07/2013
Most of the quantitative models students have encountered thus far at Darden have been evaluative in nature, so their purpose has been to analyze or evaluate a particular alternative. The task of selecting the optimal alternative has been left for them to complete outside the model (i.e., the model helps us analyze and compare individual alternatives but does not actually identify the optimal solution for us).

Credits: 1.5
Grading Basis: Graded
