This course provides an opportunity for supply chain students to apply various methodological tools to solve a real world problem supported by an external sponsor or generated as a research project. Projects require the use of quantitative and qualitative tools to analyze supply chain performance, quantify supply chain risks, optimize logistics networks, optimize inventory levels, or evaluate capacity decisions. Specific methodologies include mathematical modeling, data mining, statistical analysis, inventory optimization, network optimization, process analysis, and waiting line modeling and optimization.
