Who should consider this course?

MBA in Operations Management is considered as a Functional Specialization and Operations Management is the most important management function of both Product Manufacturing Companies and Service Delivery Companies

The scope of MBA in Operations Management is very wide and there are some domains in Production Management that is best suited for students of any background (Engineering, Science, Commerce, Humanities and etc.,). It is a common perception that students with an Industrial Engineering/ Production Engineering/ Mechanical Engineering and related fields are generally preferred over other specialization. This could only be applicable in companies engaged majorly in Manufacturing. But, when it comes to Service Delivery Operations (Hotels, Airlines, Telecommunications, Business Process Outsourcing and etc.,), the scope is very wide and hence such companies prefer students with varied backgrounds.
Students who complete their MBA with a specialization in operations management from KVIM are placed in job domains that focus more on the delivery side of a business. Operations management deals with a wide range of tasks associated with business-related concerns, such as:

• Quality Management (applies to both Products and Service Quality)

• Logistics Management
• Materials Management, including Inventory Management
• Process Management (applies to both Products and Services)
• Product & Services Designing
• Supply Chain Processes (Procurement, Manufacturing, Distribution and etc.,)

The course helps a student obtain skills in the operation area of business management and equips them to become a better manager.
