This course provides students with an understanding of consumer purchasing behavior. The study of consumer behavior takes a deeper investigation of how having (or not having) certain products affects our lives.
This course looks at how possessions influence how we feel about ourselves and each other, especially in the canon of social media and the digital age.
In this class, we will analyze major marketing trends and changes that impact the study of consumer behavior. Since we are all consumers, many of the topics have both professional and personal relevance, making it easy to apply them outside of the classroom.

This course will instruct and apply various key concepts of Supply Chain (SC) and the related decision making tools to solve practical supply/demand problems in the context of global supply chains.
Students will learn core SC-related concepts including time-based inventory management, warehousing, transportation and distribution systems design, facility location decision process, and information handling in SC operations as competitive advantages in service-based emerging economies. SCs are concerned with the efficient integration of suppliers, factories, warehouses and stores so that products are distributed to customers in the right quantity and at the right time. One of the primary objectives is to minimize the total supply chain cost subject to various service requirements. SCs are responsible for, now on a global scale, the delivery of valueadded goods/services in any organization – public or private, and profit or non-profit.
The course explores important supply chain metrics, primary tradeoffs in making supply chain decisions, and basic tools for effective and efficient supply chain management, production planning and inventory control, order fulfillment and supply chain coordination. We will also investigate topics such as global supply chain design, logistics, and outsourcing, several other recent supply chain innovations"
