Sources of Additional Information Significant Points Candidates should have strong quantitative and computer skills; employers prefer workers who have completed advanced math courses. Employment is projected to grow much faster than average. Individuals with a master's or Ph.D. degree in operations research or management science should have excellent employment prospects; some entry-level positions are available to those with a bachelor’s degree. Nature of the Work About this section Operations research analysts formulate and apply mathematical modeling methods to develop and interpret information that assists management with policy formulation and other managerial functions. Using analytical techniques, operations research analysts help managers to make better decisions and solve problems. The procedures of operations research were first formalized by the military. They have been used in wartime to effectively deploy radar, search for enemy submarines, and get supplies to where they are most needed. In peacetime and in private enterprises, operations research is used in planning business ventures and analyzing options by using statistical analysis, data mining, simulation, computer modeling, linear programming, and other mathematical techniques.

MORE INFORMATION What is Operational Research? In a nutshell, operational research (O.R.) is the discipline of applying appropriate analytical methods to help make better decisions. By using techniques such as problem structuring methods (sometimes known as 'Soft O.R.') and mathematical modelling to analyse complex situations, operational research gives executives the power to make more effective decisions and build more productive systems based on: More complete data Consideration of all available options Careful predictions of outcomes and estimates of risk The latest decision tools and techniques A uniquely powerful approach to decision making To achieve these results, O.R. professionals draw upon the latest analytical technologies, including: Simulation Giving you the ability to try out approaches and test ideas for improvement Optimisation Narrowing your choices to the very best when there are virtually innumerable feasible options and comparing them is difficult Probability and Statistics Helping you measure risk, mine data to find valuable connections and insights, test conclusions, and make reliable forecasts

Operational research Main content Operational research Operational research provides decision-makers with information to enable them to improve the performance of their programmes. Operational research helps to identify solutions to problems that limit programme quality, efficiency and effectiveness, or to determine which alternative service delivery strategy would yield the best results. In simple terms it is described as “the science of better”. Operational research focuses on factors which are under the control of programmes. It seeks to improve the number and quality of services and programme outputs and outcomes by optimizing programme inputs (e.g., personnel, supplies) and processes (e.g., training, supervision, promotion of services). Operational research can also determine cost-effective and sustainable ways to build service delivery capacity, test financing alternatives, and make advocacy and communication strategies and tools more effective. For example, a study to increase condom use among patients on antiretroviral treatment might experiment with changes in provider training or client counseling and measure the impact on the number of condoms distributed or frequency of consistent condom use.
