Track Capital Goods

Capital goods are machines and tools that are used in the production of other goods rather than being sold to consumers. Technical systems such as MRI scanners, wafer scanners, baggage systems, and large-scale computers are examples of capital goods. The students learn how to address problems concerning capital goods from OML perspective, such as availability and capacity utilization. Main research topics of OML within capital goods sector are production planning, inventory planning, maintenance & reliability, sustainability, forecasting, and human performance.

Within the Specialization track 'Capital Goods' there are 20 EC of Track Core courses.
