Brief Description

This course is designed to expose students to the concepts of supply chain management and logistics systems. The course emphasizes the use of mathematical models and quantitative techniques in analyzing these systems. The main drivers and components of supply chain management and logistics systems, such as purchasing, inventory, production, and transportation, areexamined in detail. Interactions and trade-offs among these components using mathematical models and quantitative techniques are also covered.

Homework

Homeworkisassigned to expose students to more complex problems and understanding of the theory, and to evaluate their abilities and knowledge. Students should be prepared to spend considerable time for preparing homework.Students are expected to submit their homeworkbeforethe due date and time. Failing to do so will result in 25% grade reduction for each late day.

Research Report and Presentation

Research topics that highlight the current issues in Supply Chain Management will be announced in the beginning of the semester. The students are asked to make groups of two and choose one of the research topics announced and prepare a report that surveys the literature about their topics. The reports should be at most15 typed double-spaced pages. Students will also make a 10-minute presentation of their projects in class.

Research Topics:

Inventory Management in Supply Chains

Revenue Management and Pricing

Value of Information Sharing and Coordination in Supply Chains

Supply Chain Contracts

The Impact of Internet and E-Business on Supply Chains

The Importance and Applications of RFID Technology in Supply Chains

Management of Perishable Products

Logistics and Transportation Issues

Facility Location and Capacity Decisions

Reverse and Closed-Loop Supply Chains

Exams

Exams for this course are similar to any other: They are entirely targeted at evaluating the performance of students. So no form of information exchange will be permitted. There will always be a reasonable time limit at the exams. There is a Midterm exam in the middle of the semester and a Final exam at the end of the semester.

Final grades will be determined as follows:

Midterm / 30%
Final / 40%
Homework Assignments / 15%
Research Report and Presentation / 15%
