Graduate Profile
The correct decision making is essential for the efficient operation of a company. A decision taken lightly can mean significant short-term or long-term financial loss for the institution. On the contrary, a decision made after analyzing information, such as financial statements, market behavior or performance of operations, can generate sustainable growth for the company.
By studying the Master of Engineering with a specialty in Operations Management and Supply Chain From Galileo University you will be a professional capable of:
Identify the physical, financial and information flows inherent in supply chains.
- Use analytical and administrative tools in the optimization of resources and business analysis, for efficient decision making.
- Recognize that all supply chains are different, with common characteristics.
- Gain multiple perspectives of supply chains to include process and system views.
- Understand the importance of analytical models to support supply chain decision making.
- Apply advanced analytical methods such as optimization, statistics, machine learning, and simulation.
- Understand the management, financial and strategic part of a company. Understand the different structures that make up the company and how they interact with each other.
- Understand project management methodologies.
The virtual modality that you can choose promotes constructivist learning that avoids establishing specific study hours for all participants. Each student organizes their time and carries out the assigned activities according to their availability and the established demands.
