We will focus on both strategic and tactical operational decisions within a single firm and throughout supply chains, and learn how these techniques apply to various industrial and organizational settings. The course will intermix lectures, cases and interactive experiences so that the students not only obtain the familiarity with the approaches we study, but also experience their applications to practical situations. The ultimate goal is to get students' "toes in the water" with multiple techniques and applications, so that they can get a comprehensive overview of operations and supply chain analytics, and have a basis to zoom into ones most pertinent to their current jobs and future careers.
