Strategic Operations Immersion Practicum

Course information provided by the Courses of Study 2023-2024.

The Semester in Strategic Operations (SSO) is a semester-long intensive course designed for students interested in careers in management consulting, operations, and e-commerce/tech operations. The objectives of this course are to: (i) explore the linkages of operations with data analytics, human capital, finance, marketing, technology, and new product development in different business contexts – e-commerce, manufacturing, supply chains, software, services, etc., (ii) practice how to design operations to address different types of current challenges and opportunities that firms face, (iii) learn from industry leaders how operations is getting transformed, and (iv) execute an industry-sponsored project with outcomes that have meaningful value. SSO achieves its learning objectives using class curriculum, site visits, guest speakers, and industry-sponsored projects. A large portion of the course work is team-based and participation in off-campus site visits is required. SSO enrolls students from the Johnson School, the College of Engineering, and the School of Industrial and Labor Relations, and the course is designed to take advantage of this diversity in the student body.
