Graduate Operations Management Certificate

Western New England University

Operations management is the administration of engineering and business practices to create the highest level of efficiency possible within an organization by utilizing resources of staff, materials, equipment, and technology to add value and deliver goods and services in a format that best suits client needs. This is accomplished through the structured analysis of system properties and needs, including: plant sizing, inventory sizing and control through supply-chain management, quality control, materials handling, maintenance policies and minimization of waste. These tasks are complex in any situation. Put into the context of global enterprise systems, the complexities magnify and require advanced knowledge, skill, and education to manage. This certificate is designed to be the management-oriented compliment to the Graduate Certificate in Operations Research (analytic-oriented).
