For you?
Operations is at the heart of every organisation. Are you looking to develop your career as an operations manager? In this English-taught module, you will learn how to manage and improve processes and resources efficiently, making a direct impact on organisational performance and results.
A solid understanding of operations is essential for any organisation. The COVID-19 pandemic clearly demonstrated how disruptions in global supply chains can upset the balance between supply and demand, leading to widespread economic consequences.
In this English-taught module, you will explore the principles of operations management and learn how to effectively manage and optimise processes and resources. You will build a strong foundation for a future role as an operations manager.
Topics include process design, capacity management, inventory management and supply chain management. You will also learn about lean management and discover how to improve efficiency while reducing waste.
The module combines theory with practice. You will work on real-world business challenges and gain insight into how operations are organised within companies and how they can be improved.
