Brief Description
This course is designed to expose students to the concepts of supply chain management and
logistics systems. The course emphasizes the use of mathematical models and quantitative
techniques in analyzing these systems. The main drivers and components of supply chain
management and logistics systems, such as purchasing, inventory, production, and
transportation, are examined in detail. Interactions and trade-offs among these components
using mathematical models and quantitative techniques are also covered.

Homework
Homework is assigned to expose students to more complex problems and understanding of
the theory, and to evaluate their abilities and knowledge. Students should be prepared to
spend considerable time for preparing homework. Students are expected to submit their
homework before the due date and time. Failing to do so will result in 25% grade reduction
for each late day.
Research Report and Presentation
Research topics that highlight the current issues in Supply Chain Management will be
announced in the beginning of the semester. The students are asked to make groups of two
and choose one of the research topics announced and prepare a report that surveys the
literature about their topics. The reports should be at most 15 typed double-spaced pages.
Students will also make a 10-minute presentation of their projects in class.
Research Topics:
Inventory Management in Supply Chains
Revenue Management and Pricing
Value of Information Sharing and Coordination in Supply Chains

Exams
Exams for this course are similar to any other: They are entirely targeted at evaluating the
performance of students. So no form of information exchange will be permitted. There will
always be a reasonable time limit at the exams. There is a Midterm exam in the middle of the
semester and a Final exam at the end of the semester.
Final grades will be determined as follows:
