HCM814O Service Operations Management

[3–0, 3 cr.]

This course addresses the design and management of effective and efficient systems for the proper conveyance of services.

This course will give students the tools to design service systems that obey standard principles in layout, queuing, inventory, and quality against the backdrop of human interactions in healthcare.
