  2. Course Objectives
    This course explores the core principles and techniques of operations management (OM), related to the efficient and sustainable design of goods, operations, and the improvement of organizations that create and deliver products and services to consumers. Based on the components of OM, this course comprehensively guides the complex processes not only the goal of the OM such as strategic operation of a company, overseas market entry, and sustainable supply chain management, but also the organic mechanism from product and service design, project management, information systems, production management, supply chain management, to quality management, and decision-making techniques. This course is lecture- and discussion-centered, but case studies and projects are provided to encourage participation and acquire concepts. In order to enhance student participation and understanding, the course focuses on introducing core concepts and cases based on cases that can be encountered in real business environments. Students are not required to have any prior knowledge, and the course will start from the very fundamentals of OM.
  3. Teachnig Method
    This class has class rules for attendance. - Attendance: Absences without an official excuse note (following University guidelines at https://haksa.kmu.ac.kr/haksa/9170/subview.do) will result in a 3-point deduction from the attendance score per absence.

More detailed class rules related to participation, exams, and others will be introduced in the first class. This course is organized as follows: - Interactive Lectures: Introduce key concepts and techniques with solicit materials and examples that can be encountered in real business and life - Case Study Analysis: Using real-world business cases to dissect operational successes and failures - Hands-on Workshops: Throughout light activities, students can apply their learning to their situation and review the concepts. - Activity-Based Learning: Students can internalize the concept through the activities using Excel, Gant charting with Mermaid, understanding the OM-MIS scheme through SQL, and several Excel practices. At the end of the semester, students will be equipped with the knowledge in the following software: SQL/ACESS/MERMAID/EXCELQM/EXCEL - Collaborative Group Project: A semester-long project culminating in the design of a sustainable product or service, requiring students to apply concepts from across the curriculum.
