Course Catalog Description
A survey of the concepts and methodologies for management control of production and operations systems. Topics include inventory control, material requirements planning for multistage production systems, aggregate planning, scheduling, and production distribution.
Class Description
Operations is the design and management of processes that transform inputs into finished goods or services. This course introduces the concepts and analytic methods that are useful in understanding the management of a firm’s operations. We will cover topics that are relevant for both products and services, including process analysis, queueing, quality control, inventory management, supply chain management, and operations strategy as well as emerging topics such as product management, people operations, the future of work, and sustainability. Examples will be drawn from a diverse set of industries, from food to fashion, from hotels to healthcare, from e-commerce to ride-sharing. Class sessions will have a mix of a lecture and discussion that will provide the foundational material on a topic, and a case discussion. Throughout the course, you will also gain hands-on exposure to the concepts from experiential simulation games and a final project.
