This is an open access book. Management science and engineering is a systematic discipline that combines modern information technology and digital technology, and then uses some related discipline methods, such as systems science, mathematical science, economics and behavioral science, and engineering methods. After analyzing and researching some problems arising from social economy, engineering, education, finance, etc., and making corresponding countermeasures. The main purpose is to achieve control and planning, decision-making and adjustment in social, economic, education, engineering and other aspects, and then make improvements, and finally organize and coordinate. The relevant departments can be combined to achieve system management, so that the allocation of resources and the Management can be rationally optimized, so that individual functions can play the greatest role, minimize resource consumption, and maximize the optimal allocation of resources. This is also the ultimate research purpose. Liangliang Wang said:" Management is the productive force, which promotes the development of the country, society and enterprise. The relationship between management practice and management science is the relationship between theory and practice. The research on management science helps to improve the level of management, and then promote the development of the country, society and enterprises. On the other hand, management practice changes with the continuous progress of the times. It is necessary to study the current situation and trend of management science in the new era, which will help to clarify the future development direction of the discipline and discover the deficiencies in management scientific research and grasp it. The focus of management science research, thereby promoting research in management science."
