My second class for the fall semester is Distribution Center Design and Operations. For the purpose of the class, Distribution Center and Warehouse are the same thing. We're learning all about warehouses. Did you now there are over 500,000 warehouses in the USA?
We spent yesterday's class learning about each other and talking about administrative things. Here's the breakdown by home country of the 39 students in the class:
- India 12
- Turkey 9
- USA 8
- Taiwan 4
- Korea 2
- Iran 2
- Jordan 1
- Nepal 1
There are 5 women in the class. The professor is also from the USA and he is a well-respected teacher and researcher. His style is interactive so he expects discussion in his class. We'll be doing a project with AFLAC--they have a warehouse full of forms that needs to be better managed.
Maybe that new distribution center for Rooms-2-Go near I-59 on the way to Poplarville needs someone to manage it!
