Supply Chain Fundamentals.

As expected from MIT-level of course: it's interesting, challenging, engaging, and for me personally quite enlightening.

This course is second part of 5 courses in supply chain management micromasters program. I was interested in learning about supply chain (purely personal interest, my work touch this topic but not directly) and stumbled upon this course, took it, and man-oh-man...I just couldn't stop learning. Now I'm planning to take the rest of the courses.

Average time/effort per week should be around 8-10 hours, but I tried to squeeze everything into just 5 hours since I have very limited free time. You will need 2-3 hours per week for the lecture videos, 2 hours for practice problems, and another 2 hours for the weekly homework.

This course offers several topics around demand forecasting and inventory. Basic knowledge of probability and statistics is needed. It will help if you take the prerequisite course: supply chain analytics. But if you've already familiar with basic concept of statistics, you can pick yourself along the way.

The lectures are very interesting and engaging, it gives you a lot of knowledge but also throw in some business perspective, so it's very relatable and applicable! The practice problems can help strengthen the understanding of the given knowledge and the homework are very challenging compared to other online-courses I have taken.

This course is the best quality I have taken so far, and I have taken several (3-4 MOOCs) from other provider.
