Course Objectives: The aim of this course is to provide students with an operation management perspective and to enable them to plan and implement the operation.
Course Contents: This course includes operations management, process management, order processing and picking, shipment and delivery planning, delivery and return product traffic management, information technology dimension of operations management and organization of operations management.
Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit (LO):
  • 1- Students understand and explain the basic concepts related to manufacturing, operations, and supply chain structures.
  • 2- Students develop the ability to apply mathematical, operations research, and statistical techniques in production and operations management.
  • 3- Students gain the ability to use data and information sources in production processes and can use tools such as matrix algebra for data analysis.
  • 4- Students gain modeling skills in production and operations management and develop the ability to represent business processes mathematically.
  • 5- Students create, solve, and interpret linear programming models, as well as apply these models through computer programs.
  • 6- Students gain the ability to perform sensitivity analysis in production and manufacturing models, understand the concept of duality, and calculate shadow prices.
  • 7- Students develop an ability to model in production and distribution chains and create and solve network and transport models.
  • 8- Students conduct case studies for real-world applications, solve problems, and produce solutions using a computer programming language.
Planned Learning Activities and Teaching Methods: Face to face
