IENG598 Graduate Research Seminar

This course is designed to orient the students for research by emphasizing reading, comprehension, discussion and performing exercises on IE/OR problem areas. For this purpose, each student is required to choose an IE/OR topic that is suitable to his/her academic background and interests, study this topic under the guidance of faculty members, make a literature survey, and point out the relevant further research areas. Throughout this course each student is also required to read and study some technical papers and give a series of seminars.
