Operations Management

Operations management scholars ask questions such as: What resources are needed to create a product? How will quality be measured? What is the process hierarchy?

Operations management oversees all activities directly related to making a product or providing a service. This program will give you an introduction to operations management concepts, provide an understanding of systems for continuous improvement and introduce analytical aids for managerial decision-making. You'll complete formal presentations, live projects, group projects and various case studies during your degree.
