Our teaching approach is multi-disciplinary
Our teaching concept is mainly based upon providing students with basic concepts, working knowledge and software tools in the areas of supply chain management, inventory management, production management, procurement management, and logistics. We are teaching classes in SCOM exemplifying theoretical concepts with practical projects and using such tools as AnyLogic, anyLogistix, Supply Chain Guru and Spreadsheet Modelling.
The content of our teaching is summarized in the following textbooks:
