The Chair of ABWL and Production Management provides two compulsory courses in the Bachelor's degree programme in Industrial Engineering and Management.

 

In the lecture Introduction to Business Administration for Industrial Engineers, students acquire the basic technical terms and methods of business administration (BWL). Furthermore, they are familiarised with the basics of decision theory.

 

The lecture Operations Research for Industrial Engineers gives an overview of methods for solving quantitative decision problems in business and industry.

 

Introduction to Business Administration for Industrial Engineers

3 ECTS, 2 SWS Winter
Operations Research for Industrial Engineers 4 ECTS, 3 SWS Winter

 

Bachelor specialization Production Management (15 ECTS) - PO2019

In the Bachelor's specialisation in Production Management in the Industrial Engineering degree programme, methods for analysing and solving managerial problems in the planning, organisation and optimisation of production processes and the associated supply chains and production networks are taught.

 

In the lecture Sustainable Production Management, students are introduced to production systems and supply chains in the context of sustainable development. They are able to model production systems and analyse them using qualitative and quantitative methods. Based on case studies from different industries, the contents are deepened and practised hands-on.

 

The lecture Cost Management (Chair of Controlling, Prof. Wömpener) provides students with knowledge about cost accounting, cost structures, cost behaviour and measures to influence costs.

 

In the Bachelor's seminar Sustainable Production Management, students work on planning problems relevant to practice (e.g. Industry 4.0 and Smart Production, Optimisation in Production, Modelling and Decision Support in the Energy Sector). Either they implement models from Operations Research using Python or they create a life cycle assessment (LCA) using Brightway. The approach and results are documented in the seminar paper and presented to the other seminar participants as a lecture.

 

This prepares the students for a Bachelor's thesis in the field of production management.
