BUS317PRODUCTION MANAGEMENT (SELF-ASSESSMENT EXCERCISES)
The Self-Assessment Exercises in BUS 317: Production Management are designed to help students evaluate their understanding and application of key concepts in production and operations management. These exercises typically involve reflective questions, scenario-based problem-solving, and skill assessments related to topics such as production planning, inventory control, quality management, facility layout, and process optimization. By working through these activities, students gain a clearer view of their decision-making abilities, analytical thinking, and operational planning skills—core competencies needed to manage efficient production systems.
In addition to reinforcing theoretical knowledge, these self-assessments encourage personal reflection on one’s readiness to handle real-world production challenges. Students are prompted to assess their proficiency in using tools like Gantt charts, forecasting techniques, and lean production strategies. This process fosters greater self-awareness and helps identify areas for improvement, ultimately equipping students with the confidence and skills to thrive in manufacturing, logistics, and operations roles across various industries.
