MSE Master of Science in Engineering

The Swiss engineering master's degree


Chaque module vaut 3 ECTS. Vous sélectionnez 10 modules/30 ECTS parmi les catégories suivantes:

  • 12-15 crédits ECTS en Modules technico-scientifiques (TSM)
    Les modules TSM vous transmettent une compétence technique spécifique à votre orientation et complètent les modules de spécialisation décentralisés.
  • 9-12 crédits ECTS en Bases théoriques élargies (FTP)
    Les modules FTP traitent de bases théoriques telles que les mathématiques élevées, la physique, la théorie de l’information, la chimie, etc., vous permettant d’étendre votre profondeur scientifique abstraite et de contribuer à créer le lien important entre l’abstraction et l’application dans le domaine de l’innovation.
  • 6-9 crédits ECTS en Modules contextuels (CM)
    Les modules CM vous transmettent des compétences supplémentaires dans des domaines tels que la gestion des technologies, la gestion d’entreprise, la communication, la gestion de projets, le droit des brevets et des contrats, etc.

Quantitative Methods in Industrial Operations Management (TSM_QInOpMgmt)

Operations management is concerned with the design, operation and optimization of the value-adding areas of a company.
At the strategic level it includes in particular the design of infrastructure and resources, the dimensioning of capacity and the
definition of business processes. At an operational level, it includes ongoing planning and control of operational activities. The
aim is to achieve high business performance through clever organization and efficient use of resources.
In a first part an overview of the classical themes of Operations Management is given. In a second part selected methods of
quantitative Operations Management (see Operations Research) are applied to tasks of important areas (see. contents below)
of Operations Management. These tasks will be analyzed and optimized with the help of mathematical models.

Compétences préalables

  • The students can classify operational issues in the tasks of the Operations Management (i.e. design or operations).
  • The students know selected quantitative methods and models of Operations Management.
  • The students can make use of the learned methods and are aware of the assumptions and restrictions of these.
  • The students can formulate practical questions from Operations Management as mathematical models.
