The Department of Decision Sciences is a multidisciplinary department in the School of Economic and Financial Sciences of the College of Economic and Management Sciences at the University of South Africa. The department brings together scholars from a range of fields with an interest in decision making applying quantitative methods.
We offer both undergraduate and postgraduate studies in Quantitative Management and Operations Research.
The focus areas of our research include Computability and Complexity in Decision Sciences (CCDS), Quantum Information and Computation (QIC) and Modelling and Optimisation.
