This graduate level course introduces students to [[design optimization]] theory and methodology (incl. model construction); [[discrete choice models]]; [[conjoint analysis]] and [[design of experiments]] in [[survey design]]; [[game theory]]; and [[policy analysis]]. Students apply methods in a course project to coordinate engineering design of a product with measured market preferences and positioning, examining engineering tradeoffs and economic incentives.

This course provides engineers with a multidisciplinary mathematical foundation for integrated modeling of engineering design and enterprise planning decisions in an uncertain, competitive market. Topics include economics in product design, manufacturing and operations modeling and accounting, consumer [[choice modeling]], survey design, [[conjoint analysis]], decision-tree analysis, [[optimization]], [[game theory]], model integration, and professional communication skills. Students will apply theory and methods to a team project for a new product or emerging technology of their choice, developing a [[business plan]] to defend technical and economic competitiveness. Students may choose to select emerging technologies from research at Carnegie Mellon for study in the course, and in some years venture capitalists and other industry leaders will take part in critiquing student projects. This course assumes fluency with calculus and some prior programming experience. Graduate students will conduct an additional independent research project.
