In the global economy, there has been a significant shift from a focus on manufacturing to a focus on service. It is important to note that this shift is occurring in two ways: first, service industries make up a larger part of our economy than ever before; second, many traditional manufacturing firms (e.g., IBM) now realize more revenue and profit from the service aspects of their businesses than from the traditional manufacturing operations. To address this change, the Operations and Strategic Management department, the Marketing department and the Information Technology department have developed a cross-functional set of electives devoted to educating emerging managers in the key elements of service management and service delivery.

Students taking these electives will be readily conversant with the complex nature of the service value chain, from supplier to customer, and will enter the workplace with the skills and tools necessary to enhance and leverage the key performance drivers in the service value chain.
