Περίληψη: This research continues a 30-year tradition of measuring institutional contribution to applied research in OR/MS. It provides both a current and time series view of which institutions prioritize OR/MS in practice. This 14th Rothkopf Rankings continues a 30-year tradition that Michael Rothkopf began in 1996 of measuring the contributions of academic institutions to the research on the application of operations research, management science, and analytics. I assess the activity of universities in the production of practice-centric operations research over two different overlapping seven-year periods—2015–2021 and 2018–2024—to maintain consistency with prior Rothkopf Ranking studies. I use the evolving ranking methods, presenting three different measures of output and one blended ranking. Although there are some very familiar and regular top contributors (notably, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the Colorado School of Mines, the Georgia Institute of Technology, and the Naval Postgraduate School, among others), there is considerable randomness in the coverage of applied research across most ranked institutions.
