Hi,

I recently got admitted to two MS programs:

Columbia Univerisity - Management Science and Engineering (1.5 years)
MIT - Computation for Design and Optimization (2 years)

I'm interested in applications of Operations Research in financial engineering, logistics/supply chain, and vehicle routing/transportation systems. My ultimate goal is to continue at the Ph.D. level in the field of Operations Research. I decided to apply to M.S. program first because I did not have much background or experience in research.

Any one has any thoughts on these programs? Thanks a lot!
 
MIT absolutely! Columbia's MS&E is mainly professional designed for those who are interested in consulting, you can know from its course that it's not so much related to OR. Moreover, the expense in NY is considerable.
