LEARNING OUTCOMES

Students will develop skills to design, map and analyze processes in both manufacturing and service contexts. Through hands-on exercises, simulations and assignments, students will understand how process design and factors internal and external to a process impact process flow and process performance and how changes in the process impact these. After the course, students are able to both design efficient new processes as well as improve existing processes based on analytical tools.
