Creating tomorrow's business leaders.

The ODT Department prepares students for exciting careers on the forefront of supply chain management, operations management, business analytics, and information systems.

Undergraduate students can choose from majors in:

  • Supply Chain Management
  • Operations Management
  • Information Systems

or a co-major in:

  • Business Analytics
  • Digital Technology Management

Our theory and application courses provide the fundamental knowledge you'll need to hone your business skills. The Operations and Decision Technologies curriculum builds on such foundational courses as:

  • 16-weeks
  • 3 credits
  • Prerequisite: K201 or K204 with a grade of C or better

BUS-K 303 provides an introduction to the ways that technology enables and empowers business decision-making. In this introductory analytics course, you will learn how companies apply technology tools to prepare, analyze, model, and display the information used to manage their business. You will apply these same techniques using spreadsheet modeling and other tools. The course will meet twice weekly in a computer lab format to allow for hands-on instruction. The course will rely heavily on Microsoft Excel and the pre-requisite skills learned in K201/K204 to develop sophisticated data analysis and modeling tools.

The Integrated Core (I-Core) is a block of four classes that will bridge together everything you’ve learned inside and outside the classroom during your first two years at Kelley. Specifically, this block of four classes looks at the important relationships among finance, marketing, operations, and leadership. Learn more about the Undergraduate Program curriculum. 

Careers
