Objectives The objective of this course is to discuss the major managerial processes of planning, organizing, leading, coordinating, controlling and correcting by emphasizing management applications in technology based organizations and environments.

Description

This course attempts to examine the engineering relationships between the key management processes of planning, organizing, leading, coordinating, controlling and correcting and the human element in technology-driven production and service organizations to develop a better understanding of the engineering management discipline. Furthermore, the course aims to develop a basic understanding of organizations as complex socio-technical systems and emphasize process management techniques that aspire to build a more cohesive link between technology and human endeavor. While it strives to provide state-of –the-art management techniques and process applications it systematically supports this theoretical groundwork with innovation and technology driven examples.

Outcomes

Students are expected to develop an understanding of the functioning of organizations, how various factors relate to this functioning and how various techniques can help to achieve a better integration of the technology and human factors. Students develop communication skills by presenting their project results in both written and oral presentations.
