Master of Science in Management Science and Engineering

MS&E is uniquely positioned to solve societal problems, and we support students with diverse resources. Management Science and Engineering provides programs of education and research by integrating three basic strengths- Depth in conceptual and analytical foundations; Comprehensive coverage of functional areas of application; and Interaction with other Stanford departments, Silicon Valley industry, and organizations throughout the world telecommunications. Graduates of the MS&E program know math, engineering and behavioral science. They can conduct experiments to design better systems, organizations, and work processes. They understand how to analyze data to solve real-world problems, and develop mathematical and computational models to inform action. They know how to surface and examine unarticulated assumptions and root causes. They can communicate effectively in the team environments found in so many contemporary organizations.
