BDEM Students from FOM Experience Bread Production at Gardenia Factory
On June 28, 2024, 39 Bachelor of Digital Enterprise Management (BDEM) students from the ERP Material Management class visited the Gardenia Bread Factory, accompanied by Ts. Dr. Anusuyah Subbarao, Ms. Premylla and Dr Aaron Aw from the Faculty of Management. The field trip provided a valuable opportunity for students to see firsthand the real-world applications of their classroom learning.
During the visit, students explored the various stages of bread production, from raw material handling to packaging which is very much related to what they study in the class. They observed how theoretical concepts related to material management and production planning are implemented in a large-scale manufacturing environment.
The field trip proved to be both educational and insightful, allowing students to connect their academic studies with practical industry practices. In addition to the BDEM group, a contingent of MBA students, supervised by Dr. Nasreen Khan, joined the tour, enriching the experience with diverse perspectives.
The students thoroughly enjoyed the trip, returning home with a wealth of sweet memories. Each participant received a goodie bag from Gardenia, adding a delightful touch to their educational experience. The visit not only enriched their understanding of bread production but also left them with cherished moments and tangible reminders of a successful and enjoyable field trip.
