Section Title:
Operations Analysis
Section Info:
This course is open to students pursuing the Graduate Minor or Concentration in Supply Chain Management. Operations management is the management of business processes. That is, the recurring activities of a firm that enable the efficient production of goods and services. This course provides analysis tools for operations management. Along with finance and marketing, operations is one of the three primary functions of a firm. At the risk of being simplistic, one may say that marketing generates the demand for products (or services), finance provides the capital, and operation produces the product (or services). Generally, operation spans the entire organization: Chief Operating Officers (COO)’s in many companies are in charge of R&D, design/engineering, production operations, marketing, sales, support and service. This course is structured around 3 themes: (1) capacity management, (2) the design and analysis of processes and (3) inventory management analysis. From these themes, the course aims to (1) familiarize you with the major operational problems and issues that confront firms/managers, and (2) give you exposure to and practice with the language, concepts, insights and tools that firms employ to combat the operational problems they incur in day-to-day activities. This course should be of particular interest to people aspiring a career in designing and managing business processes (e.g., management consulting), but also for those who intend to work in the interfaces between operations and other business functions such as finance, marketing, managerial accounting and human resources.
