Marketing & Operations Management, BS
The Marketing and Operations Management joint concentration emphasizes the importance of partnership between marketing and operations for new product development (NPD) in light of the fact that NPD is a critical company effort highly dependent on internal innovation processes. Given the complexity of these processes, the insights provided by cross-disciplinary collaboration can be particularly beneficial in many efforts, including:
- Creativity-based new product development
- Innovation in service manufacturing and new service development
- Customer response to next-generation products
- The use of conjoint analysis in engineering designs
- Platform-owner market entry
- Design-intensive innovation
