---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
ESM4047 | Logistics Management System | 3 | 6 | Major | Bachelor/Master | 1-4 | Industrial Engineering | - | No |
Logistics is a closely related concept of supply chain management that plans and controls forward and reverse flow and storage of goods, services, and information in the chain. From the raw materials to finished goods on the retail shelf, products must be repeatedly handled, stored, and moved. This course provides fundamental knowledge of logistics systems such as material management system, material flow system, and physical distribution system. This course is focused on locating facilities, freight transport, material handling systems such as automated guided vehicle, conveyor, overhead hoist transport, and design and control of automated warehouse systems. Students are expected to have basic knowledge of operations research and computer programming. The scope of this course is from basic forecasting methods for purchasing, inventory management, and distribution to facility location problems, warehouse management, and freight transport. The warehouse design and operation and material handling systems are especially handled in detail. The objectives of this course are to provide students with a broad overview of logistics and in-depth understanding of logistics management systems, and an understanding of concepts and solution approaches important to analyze the logistics operation of the systems. Course grading: Homework, Attendance & Quizzes, Project, Midterm exam, Final exam. Text: Introduction to Logistics Systems Management, Gianpaolo Ghiani, Wiley. | |||||||||
