Course Objective

Today, a majority of people are employed in the service function of the economy, where staff schedules are often the most critical concern and major determinant for both cost and service level. People in operational environments need guidance on measures for employee scheduling effectiveness, as well as an understanding of the advantages and disadvantages of various methods available for developing scheduling solutions. This course will consolidate, integrate, and extend results that are relatively inaccesible to students since these concepts are either ignored or at most, receive 10 percent of the time in academic courses dealing with production planning.
