IS221. Programming Fundamentals (3)
The purpose of this course is to introduce students to the fundamental concepts and models of application development. Students will understand the key processes related to building effective applications and appreciate the complexity of application development. Students will learn the basic concepts of program design, data structures, coding, problem solving, programming logic, and fundamental design techniques for event-driven programs in various programming languages. Program development will incorporate the system development life cycle: gathering requirements, designing a solution, implementing a solution in a programming language, and testing and documenting the completed application.

MG 370 Operations Management (3)
A practical study of the decisions required to design, operate and control a manufacturing or service operations. This course explores the various relationships between these organizational decisions, operations and other disciplines within the organization. The relationships are discussed and documented through the use of business process management and Microsoft Visio. The organizational decisions explored include forecasting, planning of personnel and equipment, inventory planning and control, scheduling, project management, theory of constraints, and quality assurance. Pre-requisite: Junior standing, Tabor statistics requirement.
|
MG372 Process Improvement (3)
This course continues the use of process management which was introduced in the core through the Operations Management (MG370) course, and introduces the concept of Six Sigma and its tools. Students will develop a working knowledge of how to apply these methodologies across various industries. Each student will learn about quality management systems used globally. Pre-requisite: MG370 or consent of instructor.
|
MG377 Supply Chain and Logistics (3)
The student is introduced to logistics in the context of integration within a firm’s supply chain strategy and operations. The framework of supply chain management is initially presented thereby creating a foundation for in-depth study of the five logistics operational components. Next the student explores the challenges and strategies related to design and operational integration of logistics within a global supply chain. Lastly, we discuss the administrative challenges related to cross organizational collaboration, performance measurement, and the challenges of managing risk and achieving sustainability. Pre-requisites: MG370 or consent of instructor.
