On April 24, 2017, a group of students of the Company Management specialization visited the MAN production plant in Niepołomice. The visit began with a lecture by HR Manager Bogdan Lis, who familiarized the students with the profile of MAN's operations, and then initiated a discussion on problems related to the organization of operations and shaping the development strategy. In the next part of the meeting, the students got acquainted with the truck production process, including in particular the methods used in such production management. The meeting, which has an educational character, complements the knowledge in the field of Company Management acquired by students during their studies so far.
