Description
This is a presentation dealing with integrating Embry-Riddle's adjunct campus, the transient active-duty military student and a "host" community through the use of MAS 640, Supply and Distribution in the Aviation/ Aerospace Industry. A traditional problem for programs such as Embry-Riddle's adjunct campus program is visibility in the local host community. This is the same problem many military members face as they move from base to base throughout their military career. This can be an unfortunate situation as all three participants in the process have much to offer and without a process to integrate them they may never become aware of the contributions each can make.
One way to develop an integration process is through the use of MAS 640, Supply and Distribution in the Aviation/ Aerospace Industry. MAS 640 is designed to study the elements of physical distribution that include the structure of supply organizations, priority systems, cost categories, inventory control, and the applications of electronic data processing. Case studies are employed to present issues, problems, and analyses of supply systems in terms of customer satisfaction relative to costs incurred.
