Exams will include both qualitative and quantitative type of questions. All exams are closed book and closed notes. I will not hold make-up exams unless a student has a very valid reason for missing it. In my opinion, there are very few valid reasons for missing an exam. These homework assignments will require the use of word processing, spreadsheets, and optimization software tools.
All assignments are due at the beginning of class.
Due dates for assignments will be announced at least one week ahead of time. No late submissions will be accepted. For example, these projects can be extensions of the topics covered in the class, literature review on a particular technique or topic, application of quantitative techniques in industry, etc. In addition to the submission of the final project report you will be required to make a class presentation. For example, if you are not clear about a concept being discussed in the class, please ask questions.
