We visit university students up and down the country who are taking numerate degrees to promote the various different career options for when they graduate.
Whether they are aware of operational research (OR) – for example doing a MORSE course – or if they are a business and finance or engineering student who has never heard of OR we don’t mind!
The presentation lasts an hour and is a great opportunity for students to find out about a career that most would not otherwise hear about – it covers all the key information about OR, who employs OR analysts and the work they do (they are seldom called operational researchers – usually the name is 'modelling analyst' or 'risk forecaster' or 'big data analyst' or something like that).
Every large successful organisation uses OR and optimisation – they might not call it that and might not know it, but they are indeed using OR.
