Third edition of postgraduate studies “Production Management” begins on 13^th October, 2007. 

This course is organized by Polish Productivity Center in cooperation with Tischner European University in Cracow and our Swedish partner – MVV International AB. The course programme is based on modern, lean concept of production.

Our lecturers are usually practitioners - very often enthusiasts, outstanding experts at various disciplines related to production. They arrive from various Polish and foreign companies and organizations in order to share their practical knowledge with Tischner students. A part of practical classes is organized in production plants. The course finishes with the thesis, usually a description of specific implementation in a student’s company. 

Also students, 30 people admitted each year, constitute an interesting group varying from presidents to experts. They are both from companies operating in World Class Manufacturing system and small Polish enterprises which have everything ahead of them. The course programme is focused on exchanging experience and students integration. Just after few months they become mates. And weekend sessions very often end in one of those cosy Cracow pubs, into which the lecturers are also pulled.

This formula seems to be appreciated by students as the enrolment for the third edition was finished few weeks after its beginning. Most students have chosen this major due to the recommendation of graduates of previous two editions. Below, there are some opinions of our graduates:

• Production Management is a perfect beginning for the job position of production management in a modern company, especially the one including Lean Manufacturing in its philosophy.
• The number of students is adequate and gives the opportunity to have a dialogue with a lecturer.
  
• Great supplement for technical studies for those who manage the production. Specific knowledge presented in a very professional way. Only hard facts which are useful in my job.
