Operations Elective:
- Class: 240F Global Supply Chain, Professor Tang
- Course Description: This course is an opportunity for students to explore emerging supply chain issues in a global context. This course draws upon concepts originally introduced in your core courses on operations management, statistics, marketing, and strategy. While many of the operational processes that we will consider in this course will appear familiar, most of you will find yourselves viewing them from a different perspective especially through different conceptual framework for analyzing global supply chain issues. Throughout this course, we shall examine different strategic issues in terms of business models for creating new ventures (e.g., UBER, Alibaba, Ant Financials) and for achieving profitable growth. As the same time, we shall evaluate different operational issues in terms of incentive contracts for managing a supply chain efficiently and effectively.
