This is an introductory course on principles, methods, and techniques used in operations and supply chain analytics. Emphasis is given on the big data age where firms are continuously designing, assessing, and improving the systems that create and deliver their products and services. Students will learn visual representation techniques to enhance their understanding of complex data and models. Such visual techniques will be paired with network analysis to better identify patterns, trends and differences from datasets across categories, space, and time. The course will also draw on real-world applications to demonstrate their use in a variety of contexts.
