OPMT 430 - Sustainable Operations

3.00 credit hours

This course takes a business approach to environmental and social issues to answer what do I need to know about environmental and social issues to make my company more successful, and how can I act on that knowledge profitably? We summarize important environmental and social issues facing business (and all of society), such as global climate change, pollution, economic development, hunger, and social unrest. Drawing on most areas of the MBA program, we examine environmental and social issues associated with product design and component commonality, recycling materials, product packaging, process design and remanufacturing, facility location and design (including green building), reverse logistics and closed-loop supply chains, and global supply chains.
