Abstract: With the rapid development of the field of management science, a large number of theoretical and applied innovative research results have emerged. By selecting the important journals in the field of management science in China, ten journal data are collected, including Chinese Journal of Management Science, Journal of Management World, Journal of Management Sciences in China, Journal of Management Science, Journal of Industrial Engineering and Engineering Management, Business Review, Nankai Business Review, System Engineering Theory and Practice, Journal of Systems Engineering and Forecasting. 45,315 search results are obtained. After the manual screening, irrelevant data are eliminated. Then, 42,661 valid academic papers are obtained supporting this research. Based on the bibliometric analysis and science mapping tools, the research characteristics and dynamic development trends in the field of management science are explored. First, with the SATI tool, a preliminary exploration of the basic characteristics of the literature is explored, i.e., the article analysis. Then, based on the visualization tools VOSviewer and CiteSpace, the keywords of all the documents are extracted. The strategic diagram is presented. And, the keyword co-occurrence analysis is performed to illustrate the popular research topics in this field. Further, keyword timeline analysis and burst detection test are conducted to explore the dynamic evolution process and extract the frontier research issues in the field of management science. Finally, five important research topics are further focused and discussed combined with bibliometric analysis results, including supply chain management, financial and economic forecast, intelligent optimization algorithm, decision-making theory and method, and applications. The development status and prospects are analyzed to provide important references for relevant scholars in terms of theoretical research and practical innovation, and effective guidance for the development of this field.
