MSc in
Operational Research DU
Operational Research (OR) is the area of study where the students learn to use advanced analytical
techniques for better decision making. Sometimes it is also called as Operations Research,
Industrial Engineering or Management Science. People having Master's degree (and skills) in OR are
perfect for jobs in decision support, marketing analysis, business analytics and logistics planning.
New Delhi based Deep institute offers coaching and tuitions for those wanting to prepare for
M.Sc. Operational Research entrance examination conducted University of Delhi (DU).
