15 courses with the subject POM, each shown exactly as we captured it from the college's catalog, with every element we hold. Where the wording looks broken, that is our reading of the catalog, not the college's text.
This course is an introduction to some selected topics in the field of production and operations management. It covers process analysis, quality management, queueing and capacity management, lean operations, inventory management, aggregate planning and supply chain management.
This course provides an introduction to the latest concepts and practices of operations and supply chain management. Students learn how theory is applied to ensure good functioning of production and service processes. Topics include operations strategy, capacity management, quality management, inventory management, supply chain management, and associated technologies.
This course, as the first of a two part comprehensive, in-depth coverage of Supply Chain Management, provides, first, a basic understanding of the operations function in organizations and the associated strategic, tactical and operational aspects of this functional area. Secondly, the nature and role of supply chains within the context of the major organizational functions, especially in the light of recent developments in manufacturing, transportation, information, communication and other relevant technologies, along with some supply chain policy formulation and decision making issues, receive thorough treatment. Topical coverage includes detailed discussions and problem solving in the areas of sales and operations planning, inventory management, MRP/DRP, operations scheduling, etc.
This is a continuation of SCM I (POM 610). The remainder of the strategic, tactical and operational issues of Supply Chain Management are covered in this course. Building on and extending the concepts developed in the previous course, policy questions and decision making technologies relevant for designing and managing supply chains, operating in an intensively competitive global business environment, are addressed in detail. Some of the topics covered in this course include supply chain coordination, transportation planning, sourcing and supply chain contracts, revenue management, supply network design, sustainability and social/environmental issues, etc.
Analyzes service firms (e.g., hotels, restaurants, transportation companies, and banking firms), including relevant decision models, such as manpower scheduling, and case studies.
This course covers some selected topics on supply chain management at the advanced level, including sourcing and procurement, network designs in supply chains, closed-loop supply chains as well as sustainable supply chains. Advanced analytical models on multi-echelon supply chains, supplier selection and others, together with case studies, are the main focuses of the course. The current best practices on the selected topics will also be discussed.
This course focuses on the role of the Transportation/Logistics function in complex supply chain networks. Strategic aspects of transportation infrastructure, as well as tactical planning and operational decision making, involving transportation and related activities, will be emphasized, towards gaining sustainable economic efficiencies and achieving competitive advantage in today’s intensely competitive global economic environment. Topics covered include various modes of goods movement, the effects of public policy and regulations, costing and pricing of transportation activities, transportation planning/execution decisions and the inter-relationships between transportation/logistics and the other major supply chain activities across functional boundaries.
This course presents management case studies on designing, evaluating, and improving supply chain operations with the goal of promoting environmental, social, and economic sustainability. Topics include product and process design for sustainability, cradle-to-cradle design, “green” sourcing and procurement, reverse logistics and closed-loop supply chains, supply chain coordination for sustainability, end-of-life management, facilities location and design, sustainable transportation and logistics solutions.
The course will convey to future business leaders innovative ways to boost profitability. It will explore how firms can improve the operational management of the demand for their products (goods or services) to more effectively align it with their supply through business analytics lenses. It will introduce quantitative methods to improve decision-making, with special emphasis on spreadsheet modeling and analysis.
This course covers the critical decisions in a supply chain through data analysis and optimization techniques. It explores real-world applications in various areas of supply chain management, including supply chain network design, distribution and logistics, and inventory strategies. Students will learn to solve practical supply chain problems by applying theoretical principles and the usage of data-driven models and optimization tools.
This course consists of an industry project to provide practical experience in identifying and solving supply chain management and logistics problems.
This course is a broad survey of managerial decision making areas within the operations function of organizations. The focus is on design or strategic, as well as statistical and control issues, with a strong emphasis on mathematical modeling of decision processes and systems.
Major managerial and economic issues involving inventory management in manufacturing and services firms are examined in detail. The focus is on the development and application of operations research and applied probability based mathematical modeling approaches towards inventory decisions.
Supply chain management encompasses all the physical and information flows that play a role in satisfying customer demand for goods and services. This course emphasizes mathematical approaches towards the development and implementation of solutions in the various strategic, tactical and operational aspects of integrated supply chains.
This course focuses on services management in general and service operations in particular. It explores the elements that unite services that differentiate service processes from manufacturing processes, and that differentiate various types of services from each other. It covers strategic and tactical issues associated with designing and managing service operations, and it provides tools to help assess, design and improve processes, and establish systems to help ensure an excellent customer experience.
