Abstract
Given that operations research provides its learners with an exposure to an array of problem-solving and decision-making analytical techniques that can be applied to all areas and domains for solving complex decision-making problems, its importance in higher education cannot be understated. The purpose of this paper is to first investigate the factors that influence students’ choices of OR courses at Universities of Higher Education in India. Next, we apply MARS method to predict students’ choices of these courses.
