Learning outcomes:
After successfully completing this module, students will be familiar with the fundamental characteristics of industrial companies and be able to describe and design the most important processes in a manufacturing company. They will be proficient in the fundamental methods of site and organizational planning. They can identify the most important production factors and associated planning problems. They will be able to apply established methods and processes for planning and managing industrial personnel, operating resources and materials, and will be familiar with the fundamentals of production and cost theory. They will be familiar with the production planning and control process in an industrial company. They can identify the planning and application areas, the planning principles and the planning steps involved in the systems and can critically assess the respective system. Students will be familiar with the goals and tasks of procurement. They will be familiar with the tasks involved in strategic and operational purchasing, will be aware of the various organizational forms of purchasing and procurement concepts, and will be able to design procurement structures accordingly. They will be familiar with the platforms, tools and standards of e-procurement. They will also be familiar with the flow of materials, goods and information in the incoming goods area and will be able to design the incoming goods process accordingly. They will be able to manage suppliers and supplier relationships. They will be familiar with the objectives of supplier management, be able to analyze supplier structures and develop standard strategies. They will understand the process of supplier management and its operational phases, from supplier scouting to supplier integration. In the area of traditional materials management, students will be familiar with the statistical methods commonly used. They will be able to distinguish between materials and goods using ABC, XYZ, GMK and LMN analyses. In the industrial sector, students will be able to carry out program- or consumption-based material planning using various methods (unit cost method, cost equalization method, time series analyses, statistical forecasting methods) and will be proficient in methods for optimizing order quantities/batch sizes.
The “Industrial Management” module serves to expand and strengthen professional “knowledge and understanding” (broadening of knowledge) and instrumental skills. Together with the scientific and technical modules of the program, students will acquire the systemic skills to consider simple, interdisciplinary problems and tasks at the interface between production technology and business administration in a holistic way, and to independently design further learning processes.
