In this course, we will focus on the environmental impact of business operations, by taking a cradle to cradle approach that includes raw material acquisition through manufacturing, use, end of life disposal (reuse/recycling/re-manufacturing). The topics covered include tools and techniques needed to quantify environmental impact in supply chains such as life cycle assessment and carbon foot printing, environmental legislation, design for the environment, recycling and re-manufacturing, energy efficiency, energy efficiency, eco-certification, responsible sourcing and managing supply of renewable resources. The formulation of business and supply chain strategies that lead to actionable, proactive agenda for sustainability that not only ensures profitability for the firm but also social and environmental responsibility will be the central theme of this course.
