SUPPLY CHAIN MANAGEMENT COURSES TAUGHT
SCM 3050: Operations and Supply Chain Management
Supply chain management is the value creation engine of every organization. The focus of this course is to
acquaint students with the core elements of supply chain management: 1) customer value, 2) collaborative value creation, and
3) systems thinking. The course introduces and defines the three primary functions that compose supply chain activities-
1) purchasing, 2) operations, and 3) logistics-and shows how they need to work together to create the high-quality, low-cost, and
innovative products and services that customers expect to find in today’s marketplace. Important analytical tools are introduced.
Prerequisite: QUAN 2600 (or Business Admin. Dept. approval for engineering majors with comparable statistics background)
SCM 3500: Spreadsheet Modeling for Decision-Making
Spreadsheet software enables business people to model and analyze quantitative problems in a wide variety of
business contexts. This course covers spreadsheet modeling in terms of optimization models for deciding the best set of decisions
to meet constraints and performance objectives; simulation models for considering uncertainty in business operations and decisions;
and other decision models and tools. Through conceptual and applied topics, this course will enhance one’s problems solving and
modeling capabilities as well as Excel spreadsheet skills. Prerequisite: BSAD 2899; QUAN 2600; QUAN 3610; SCM 3050. Recommended
pre-or co-requisite: QUAN 2400.
