Build foundational knowledge in semiconductor supply chain management, covering logistics, sourcing, procurement, and planning.
Have you ever wondered how products are delivered to us so quickly after we order them? In a word: Logistics! In this introductory Supply Chain Logistics course, I’ll take you on a journey through this fascinating backbone of global trade. We’ll cover the three main components of logistics networks: transportation, warehousing, and inventory.
Have you ever wondered how products and services are created exactly the same thousands of times? And how companies are able to streamline operations to manufacture efficiently, effectively, and without any waste? How is such precision possible? The answer lies at the heart of operations. In the Supply Chain Operations course, we introduce and apply essential process improvement tools to achieve perfection.
In this course, we will explore the electrical properties of materials and classify different materials as conductors, semiconductors or insulators. We will look at some examples of conductors, semiconductors and insulators, and note the key factors that cause the differences in their electrical properties.
This entry-level online course offers a brief overview of silicon-based semiconductor fabrication, geared toward engineering undergraduates, graduate students, and pre-college learners exploring career paths in the semiconductor field. No prior experience is required. Students receive an introduction to cleanroom facilities and the environment in which microfabrication takes place.
In this introductory course, the field of microfabrication and how it is used to create semiconductor and MEMS devices is presented. Learners will develop a high-level understanding of the basic principles of physics and material properties that power the functionality of these technologies.
Have you ever wondered how companies manage their relationships with their thousands of suppliers? Sourcing is a crucial part of successful supply chain management. This course introduces you to the exciting area of supply chain sourcing. As part of a broader specialization in supply chain management, you will master the supplier selection process and supplier segmentation.
This course will cover Supplier Selection and Evaluation, Contract Management, Quality and Risk Management, and Ethics. One of the most important decisions a procurement professional makes is selecting the right supplier.
Inventory analytics is the cornerstone of supply chain analytics. A retail company may have between 30 and 50% of its assets tied up in inventory. Effective inventory management can improve revenue by increasing product variety and availability, and reduce costs and accelerate the cash flow cycle by reducing excess inventory and waste.
Welcome to Demand Analysis – one of the most sought-after skills in supply chain management and marketing! Through the history and real-world data of a leading North American cookware manufacturer, you will learn data analysis skills for demand planning and forecasting.
Have you ever wondered what it takes to successfully manage a supply chain? It all comes down to the right strategy. A supply chain management strategy is the essential direction for successfully managing a supply chain. This course is the culmination of the Supply Chain Management specialization.
This course focuses on the premise of “What is a Sustainable Supply Chain? It covers the building blocks of a supply chain, the sustainability related standards, rules, and legislation that are applicable to the supply chain and the role of business, society, and government in building a sustainable supply chain.
How do you scale and design high-performing supply chains? Digitalization is a massive force that can enable you to do just that. You need a supply chain strategy that meets your customers’ needs, but you also need sound design to make it operational. You need a vision, but also robust processes that align well with the strategy.
