Applicability / Curricular relevance:
All study programs (with year of the version of study regulations) containing the course.

MAMS-550 Marketing Science, Master, ASPO 01.04.2016 , optional course
MARPF-550 Accounting and Finance, Master, ASPO 01.10.2017 , optional course
MASCM-550 (P420-0432) Supply Chain Management, Master, ASPO 01.04.2016 , optional course
MASCM-550 (P420-0432) Supply Chain Management, Master, ASPO 01.04.2017 , optional course
Workload:
Workload of student for successfully completing the course. Each ECTS credit represents 30 working hours. These are the combined effort of face-to-face time, post-processing the subject of the lecture, exercises and preparation for the exam.

The total workload is distributed on the semester (01.04.-30.09. during the summer term, 01.10.-31.03. during the winter term).
60 class hours (= 45 clock hours) over a 15-week period.
The total student study time is 180 hours (equivalent to 6 ECTS credits).
There are therefore 135 hours available for class preparation and follow-up work and exam preparation.
Recommended prerequisites (modules):
None.
Recommended as prerequisite for:
Module coordinator:
Prof. Dr. Thomas Bousonville
Lecturer: Prof. Dr. Thomas Bousonville

Learning outcomes:
After successfully completing this module, students will be able to:
­- explain the possible applications of simulation for planning logistic systems,
­- independently map tasks from production and logistics in simulation models with the
simulation software "Plant Simulation"
- validate and analyze the generated models and evaluate the results with regard to their task,
- transfer the acquired knowledge to a realistic case study.
