Abstract: | The academic background of OR scientists is overwhelmingly in science, engineering and mathematics. This paper argues that economics graduates should be recruited into the profession in far greater numbers than at present. The contribution to OR of a scientific training is compared with the value of a background in economics, in terms both of project work undertaken and of research methodology. |
