Abstract

Since the development of artificial intelligence (AI) and big data has changed the traditional business model, business school students are facing more challenges in these days. They should master inter-disciplinary skills both in IT and OR to keep competitive in career market. It is also an opportunity for business school to combine OR and IT courses in order to revise the traditional course structure in business school. In order to discuss the possibility and necessity of OR and IT combined course system in business school, firstly we review the development of OR courses system. Then we discuss the structure design and curriculum relationship of OR and OR related course systems. After the discussion, we study the reconcile of IT and OR courses that meets different requirement of students’ IT ability. Finally, we make a case study of teaching practice at Guizhou University of Commerce to discuss the effect of OR and IT combined courses system and how this system meets the need of “new business studies”.
