Final Projects:
Students will form groups of 7-8 members and delve into in-depth research and analysis
on one of the following contemporary topics related to production planning and control.
Each group will explore 5 to 6 manuscripts encompassing a variety of sources such as book
chapters, journals, conference papers, and industry best practices. These manuscripts
will serve as the foundation for their investigative journey, providing insights into both
theoretical frameworks and practical applications.
Additionally, groups are encouraged to integrate real-life case studies and examples from
industry to enrich their analyses.
Through these Final Projects, students will demonstrate their ability to critically evaluate
complex issues, apply theoretical concepts to practical contexts, and communicate their
findings effectively.
