Mission from Grenoble 2010

AIM Conference 2010, 30 September - 3 October 2010, Grenoble

Our mission:Develop an international degree program for “Advanced Industrial Management”

What we did:•Two surveys among AIM fellows•Several surveys of leading industrial enterprises and organizations•Proposal for definitions of the terms “Industrial Management” and “Advanced Industrial Management”

Goal for today: 1.Agreement on an aligned definition of “Industrial Management” and “Advanced Industrial Management”2.Alignment for a curriculum of the “Master of Advanced Industrial Management”

Industrial Engineering


An interdisciplinary field of activity, grown out of mechanical engineering, that is concerned with the design, modelling, improvement and installation of integrated systems of people, material, information, equipment and energy in the industrial plant. It draws upon specialized knowledge and skills in the mathematical, physical and social sciences together with the principles and methods of engineering analysis and design, to specify, predict and evaluate the results to be obtained from such systems.[…]

There is a consensus about the definition of “Industrial Engineering” among the appropriate institutions (e.g. CIRP, REFA, MTM).There is a consensus about the definition of “Industrial Engineering” among the appropriate institutions (e.g. CIRP, REFA, MTM).

Industrial Management and Advanced Industrial Management

Our proposal for aligned definitions:

Industrial ManagementIndustrial Management is a discipline derived from Industrial Engineering focusing on the strategic processes. For this, especially leadership skills as well as strategic planning methods are needed.

Advanced Industrial ManagementAdvanced Industrial Management is an interdisciplinary field of planning and improving complex sociotechnical systems. It covers all fields of Industrial Engineering and Industrial Management that draws upon leadership skills and methodical expertise. Beyond this, digital planning tools and state-of-the-art methods complete the Advanced Industrial Management.

Despite the high relevance of the field of the Industrial Management there is no consensus about the definition of “Industrial Management” and “Advanced Industrial

Management”.

Today´s deficits in existing Master Programs

Lack of methodical expertise (e.g. MTM, work-sampling studies)

Studying at different universities in Europe is too difficult (e.g. difficult approval procedure)

Necessary skills for management positions are missing(e.g. lack of management skills)

Extra-occupational studies are not possible(e.g. only full-time degree programs)

Industrial enterprises have requirements towards engineering graduates. Existing Master programs have structural deficits which do not match them.

Methodical expertise

Loss of methodical expertise throughLean hype

With the spread of lean thinking, methodical expertise has increasingly declined. The Master of Advanced Industrial Management enables graduates to obtain needed

methodical expertise as well as leadership skills and competence in digital tools.

New courses for the Master Program

• Innovation management

• Advanced ergonomics

• Production systems and lean management

• Human resource development and leadership

• Production and operations planning

• Negotiation techniques

• Digital factory planning

Additional courses:

There is a bundle of additional topics that composes the Master of Advanced Industrial Management. These topics have to be covered by new courses and have

to be implemented in the Master of Advanced Industrial Management.

Conclusion

There is a need for an aligned definition of the terms “Industrial Management” and “Advanced Industrial Management” for our organization

The deficits of existing master programs in engineering demand a new Master of Advanced Industrial Management

A new Master program enables students to get into a management position earlier

Leading industrial enterprises and organizations gave a broad agreement to the developed curriculum

Decisions for:• The definitions of “Industrial Management” and “Advanced Industrial Management”• The aligned curriculum of the master program of “Advanced Industrial Management”
