Duke's Center for Quantitative Modeling (CQM) is designed for students in Duke's Master of Engineering Management Program and other Engineering departments who want to develop a deeper understanding of how businesses use computing power to solve problems and make money.
CQM's primary purpose is to bring students quickly and efficiently to the point where they can contribute to real-world problem-solving in collaboration with leading experts and industry leaders in a given subject area.
“Quantitative Modeling” is a general term that is intended to include any computationally-intensive statistical analysis of massive amounts of electronic data to create commercial value.
