Overall Educational Objective To learn to analyze the production planning system of a manufacturing/service system.
Course Description The course will cover various forecasting methods, inventory management subject to known or unknown demand, and project scheduling. The course will have a theoretical component, as well as use of technology for hands-on practice.
Course Description in Turkish Bu derste çeşitli tahminleme teknikleri, belirli ya da belirsiz talep karşısında envanter yönetimi ve proje çizelgelendirilmesi konuları işlenecektir. Ders içinde konular hem teknik olarak incelenecek, hem de teknoloji desteği ile pratik örnekler üzerinde çalışılacaktır.

Course Learning Outcomes and Competences

Upon successful completion of the course, the learner is expected to be able to:
1) analyze different time series and apply forecasting methods to these time series;
2) analyze inventory management scenarios, identify whether the scenario is deterministic or stochastic and produce decisions regarding appropriate inventory levels;
3) show projects as network flow diagrams, evaluate project completion times and examine critical factors affecting timely/successful project completion.
4) communicate production planning and control ideas in a clear and concise manner in written and oral form.

Exams and quizzes: Closed book and closed notes. Homework: N/A Rules for attendance: YÖK regulations. You are responsible for the announcements made in class. Rules for late submission of assignments: N/A Missing a quiz: No make-up will be given for the missed quizzes. For certain excuses (decided by the instructor) the percentage of the missed quiz may be added to the midterm or to the final. Missing a midterm: You are expected to be present without exception and to plan any travel around these dates accordingly. Medical emergencies are of course excluded if accompanied by a doctor’s note. A note indicating that you were seen at the health center on the day of the exam is nota sufficient documentation of medically excused absence from the exam. The note must say that you were medically unable to take the exam. Provided that proper documents of excuse are presented, missed midterm by the student will be given the grade of the final exam. No make-up will be given. If you fail to take the exam on the assigned day and do not have a valid excuse, you will be given zero (0) on the exam. Employment interviews, employer events, weddings, vacations, etc. are not excused absences. Eligibility to take the final exam: YÖK regulations. Missing a final: Faculty regulations.
