Detailed description of topics:

The course Industrial Organisation A can be considered as the continuation of the course Introduction to business engineering and management (wm0501tu). The latter course offers a broad introduction to organisations in the context of society and to the operations within the organisations, also in the perspective of the role of technology and humanities. The course Industrial Organisation A goes more deeply into the aspect of the industrial production as such. Topics are the equipping of operations and the way of organising them, the possibilities of increasing productivity and efficiency, and the role of the human factor in these aspects.
