ISE Department | System Analysis and Optimization

System Analysis and Optimization

Become a next generation engineer with the skills to decode and apply insight into the analytics used by today’s top companies. The business world has learned that using “big data” offers a significant competitive advantage. So engineers with these skills are in greater demand than ever before.

Our students discover the principles of:

model formulation
system dynamics
solution methodologies
fact analysis
and optimal decision making

Are you an industry leader, government agency or university and want to partner with ISE on a research project? Contact Paul Cohen | pcohen@ncsu.edu | 919.513.2857

Advanced analytics focuses on systems that need human decision-making through mathematical and computer models. Our students and faculty are pushing the boundaries of:

linear and nonlinear programming
discrete optimization
data analysis
knowledge extraction
intelligent systems
fuzzy decision-making
and soft computing

We also solve tomorrow’s problems today using applied probability, stochastic modeling, queuing theory and fluid approximations.
