Course Overview

Companies seek out streamlined processes to enable them to be more efficient, improve quality and be more cost-effective. The Operations Excellence course combines expertise across several disciplines to inform the industry and help companies stay ahead of their competitors.

Students learn from other cohort members, from industry practitioners, and from developing solutions to individual issues through group and personal projects. These industry experts teach alongside academics from Cranfield and Cambridge who have extensive experience in operations excellence.

We have exceptional facilities, many of which are unique in the university sector—students in the Operations Excellence course benefit from this infrastructure which also supports our work with industrial partners. Students can access computing facilities and laboratories suitable for general purposes and engineering applications. Many specialist software applications, including Witness, SAP, NVIDO, and CAD IDEAS, are available.
