3.00 Credits
The course covers methods that allow you to enter natural social settings to capture data about human behavior in the actual contexts in which people pursue their daily lives. These methods include especially observation and interviewing. The emphasis is on studying first-hand and close-up the ongoing worlds of other people. The course will help participants learn how to make sense of data inductively, i.e., from the bottom up. This course is not about hypothesis testing. It is about building grounded theory. Our focus will be on the coding and categorization of qualitative data (observational notes and interview transcripts). You will learn to go beyond the journalistic description of data to the analysis that characterizes good inductive social science. Prerequisite: doctoral standing or instructor's permission. Co-Requisite: none.

Provides a Capstone, integrative and stateof- the art intellectual experience for participants at the conclusion of the program. The class focuses on a selected major theme that is of broad and compelling managerial concern and that is related in important ways to the innovation, technology-intensive and/or information business arenas. Students are initially divided into small groups to tackle various aspects of the overall theme; individual participants are expected to submit their own analysis of a specific issue or firm associated with the general theme. Participants are encouraged to employ concepts and insights they have acquired during the course of the entire program.

A product must meet both a customer need and goals of performance, cost, quality, reliability, safety, and the environment to be successful in the marketplace. The course addresses the issues that are critical to the design of a product for manufacture and the methods that have been found to be successful in addressing these issues. The design process is studied and illustrated by means of class exercises and a term project. Selected manufacturing processes are studied to establish the relationship between product design and manufacturing process complexity. Economic feasibility, entrepreneurship, and bringing products (and services) to the market are emphasized. Prerequisites: PH 1004 and MA 1024 or MA 1324

3.00 Credits
This course is a continuation of MN 3713. The techniques addressed in this course in the context of manufacturing systems can be applied to business processes in a variety of industries addressing bottlenecks, simulation, economic computations, design process, and applications. This course will continue to build from the readings, and emphasize project work (2 projects). The course will depend on effective teamwork, centered on project work and presentations. Prerequisite: MN 3713.
