SYSEN 5160 — Managing & Modeling Complex Systems for Organizational Leaders
SYSEN 5160 is designed to teach organizational leaders how to manage and model complex systems using data-driven decision-making. Through hands-on projects, students will learn to develop a decision-making tool using Python and Streamlit. The course emphasizes mathematical, statistical, and computational models and covers a range of topics, such as stakeholder analysis, brainstorming methods, system architecture evaluation, optimization, and real-world decision-making examples.
The course is structured around lectures, five homework assignments, and a semester-long group project. Homework assignments consist of coding exercises and open-ended essay prompts to help students prepare for the final group project. The final project requires students to develop a decision-making case study using Streamlit, a short Medium post, a concise project report, and a group presentation.
