This course familiarizes students with topics, methodology, models and algorithms for health care decision making.

This course starts by overviewing topics, methodology, models, and objectives for health care decision making. Subsequently it provides an in depth and rigorous mathematical treatment of operations research applications in a variety of prominent domains. Partly, the material will be based on application of advanced methods in e.g. combinatorial optimization or queuing theory, as dealt with in the respective courses. Another part of the course will extend the standard theory, and show how the theory and techniques are extended to deal with health care specific issues.
