Min Units: 3
Max Units: 3
Students will gain practical knowledge of how global supply chains operate in dynamic environments for both production and service organizations. Students will learn about the importance of sustainable key operational decisions, their interrelatedness, and the trade-offs often associated with decision-making in local and global scenarios. This course addresses challenges in supply chain management by illuminating the sustainability frameworks, such as the Triple Bottom Line (TBL), the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and the Circular Economy (CE). It teaches students to identify and ask relevant questions, helps them make decisions based relevant information, and shows how to use systems thinking and interdisciplinary understanding to apply sustainability-driven insights across the supply chain.
