Learning objectives

The course covers the main approaches to "traditional" planning and control of the production up to the presentation and analysis of "innovative" planning and control (lean manufacturing enterprie-word class).
The course was held with interactive teaching methods that aim to transfer knowledge to students and to develop highly specialized skills and listening skills, teamwork, participation and leadership. The course is a combination of lectures, case discussions, exercises, group work and individual and corporate presentations.
