Welcome to the Stanford Department of Management Science and Engineering! Our top-ranked department spans engineering, business and public policy. Our faculty teach and do research on data modeling, behavioral science, finance, entrepreneurship, risk, operations and decision-making. We believe that tackling society’s most significant problems requires individuals with strong analytical skills and a clear understanding of people and organizations. Our dual emphasis on analytics and human behavior optimally prepares our students to address these challenges. Thanks for spending some time with us here on these pages.
