Management. Thefirst one appears in the 3rd year of the course and concerns ‘production’ in the classic sense ofthe word, i.e., production of goods, complemented with inventory management. Specifically,the contents of the Inventory and Production Management included issues like strategy,design of productive systems (including size, location and plant layout), aggregate planning,production scheduling and control and inventory management.The Operations Management course appeared in the 4th year of the graduation with thepurpose of looking at production management from a broader perspective. In other words, theterm production is now applied for both goods and services. However, for the OperationsManagement course the need to establish more ambitious
