The understanding of concepts and methods in production are increasingly decisive for optimal costs in a high-wage country. Students should become familiar with the basic mechanisms of modern production and be able to understand and apply the interrelationships.
The aim is for students to understand the needs and challenges of production and to be able to initiate appropriate measures. In addition, students should be able to apply this knowledge in the innovation process in a targeted and timely manner.
