Outline and objectives

After World War II, Japan was the world leader in all production management and supply chain management, including design, purchasing, manufacturing, transportation and delivery methods. Today, however, Japan is facing a serious stagnation in innovation. In this course, we will consider how to recognize and overcome the stagnation of innovation, based on lectures by guest speakers who are experts in the automotive, hydrogen, and semiconductor industries. The objective of this course is not to learn academic theories, but to learn practical skills necessary for business.

Goal

In addition to general knowledge of production management and supply chain management, students will acquire critical thinking based on cost engineering and behavioral economics to recognize the stagnation of innovation in the real world and develop their own hypotheses and countermeasures to overcome it.

Which item of the diploma policy will be obtained by taking this class?

Will be able to gain“DP1”,“DP2”and“DP4”.
