Our Systems Engineering and Operations Research programs have been formed, in part, from intense collaboration with offices of the federal government to solve complex challenges.
Our location and commitment to training a well-prepared workforce made us the perfect fit to work with the government agencies on our doorstep.
George Mason University is committed to training the federal workforce in crucial operations management and systems engineering methods.
