Both the Midterm and Final Exams will be curved with the highest grade among all sections starting the curve. Students having a conflict with the evening exam time will take the exam prior to the regular scheduled exam and not a make-up exam. Students are expected to form three person teams. Ideally, at least one team member should have an OMIS Area of Concentration in Information Systems and another member in Operations Management OR Logistics. Points for each case vary depending upon the effort required.
Some cases require an exorbitant amount of computations.
Teams are encouraged to use any available software or even write their own programs in analyzing some of these cases. However, in using software, teams are on their own. DO NOT expect any assistance from the instructor or his teaching assistant in the use of software. Also, the use of software is not mandatory. Teams that use manual calculations in lieu of software will not be penalized in the grading of these cases.
