MSc Operations Management

There are no average courses within our MSc programme. We are bound to provide an exceptional learning experience, and there is no better way to achieve this aim than with outstanding courses. They have been carefully crafted by experienced professors and are all meant to make you a more successful and efficient manager.

There are no old-fashioned exams. Instead you are given real-life case studies and essays, which allow you to think critically about your company and your own career. All this might seem too glossy but there is one catch: we do not accept average candidates. Only individuals as outstanding as our values can find their way toward admission at the Robert Kennedy College.

Induction

Not-for-credit module

A not-for-credit induction module will be the starting point of the programme. The induction process is designed to familiarise you with the programme design, requirements and resources, as well as with the way online interaction, learning and grading will take place. After the induction you should be familiar with academic life, including academic writing, library services and library access, OnlineCampus access, and academic support services.

Global Supply Chain Management

The aim of this module is to enable you to develop an in depth understanding of the critical nature and meaning of global supply chain management and its application across a range of organisations and sectors internationally. You will learn how to critically evaluate the contribution of global logistics and supply chain to an organisation's competitive advantage and improve your ability to recognise and implement sustainable approaches to supply chain management.

Operations and Information Management

Through this module you will critically analyse the theory, concepts and models of operations and information management. Operations and Information Management provides you with an overview of how to improve different types of operations and information systems as well as contributing to a company's competitiveness and strategy.

Project Management, Leadership and Skills: Planning and Control

You will learn about the approaches, skills and methods of effective project management, and the tools and techniques required for planning, control, teamwork, leadership and other key processes. All of these qualities will develop your ability to lead complex projects.

Customer and Supplier Engagement

Customers and suppliers are key stakeholders of most organisations and the marketing and supply chain management functions are the external interfaces for firms to engage with these respective stakeholders. This module will not only develop your understanding of marketing and supply chain management but will also enable you to develop a critical awareness of the collaborative and integrative synergies between these functions, which are often portrayed as being at opposite ends of an organisation's value chain, in the international business environment.
