I teach a modular Pricing and Revenue Analytics course that can be customized for different audiences: 3 credits for undergraduates, 3 + 3 credits for graduate students, 1.5 credits for (E)MBA programs, and a weekend-long format for company workshops.Â
Sample slides
Introduction to Pricing (inspired by lectures from Drs. Cakanyildirim, Simsek, and Tucker)
Introduction to Choice Modeling (based on chapter 4 of Gallego and Topaloglu 2019)
Topic list:
I enjoy teaching with case studies:
Cases I have used in OM and supply chain courses

Sample cases by me
Porsche Drive (A) and (B): good for introducing students to pricing basics and choice architecture.
Cannabis Inventory, Retail and Supply Chain Management: good for teaching periodic review inventory model, demand censoring, substitution, assortment planning, cost reduction, quality improvement, pooling, MTS vs. MTO, and the impact of regulation on operations and marketing strategies.

Please feel free to contact me if you want to use these cases. I am happy to share my slides, lecture videos, notes, and AI grading bots.
