Short presentation of the program:

FEOR is an ambitious and inclusive program aiming not only at supplying the learners with a quantitative toolbox full of mathematical concepts and algorithms enabling to extract the most value and impact from the available data and information, but also and primarily, to equip them with the modeling mindset.

Indeed, a fundamental skill is the ability to recognize, identify or build some models, or abstractions, as a way to apprehend and support our interactions with the systems surrounding us. In the FEOR program, we’ll apply and develop such models for finance, markets and supply-chain.

We’ll also acquaint our learners with the concept of uncertainty : how to model these “known unknowns” and take them into account in our decision-making. FEOR is not only a way to strengthen these quantitative skills, but also a fundamental basis for qualitative skills, such as critical thinking, since any models have their limits and it’s the role of the modeler to exhibit them, or problem solving since modeling has always have a symbiotic relationship with problem solving in the necessity for abstracting the system.
