Supply Chain Management
The Supply Chain Management major prepares students to assume roles as supply chain professionals in both profit and not-for-profit organizations. The focus will be on providing students with the necessary theoretical, analytical, and practical skills required to manage the flow of materials, products, services and information from original source to the final consumer. The program emphasizes the successful application of SCM techniques and concepts through collaboration and integration both within and between organizations.
Our Center for Excellence in Supply Chain Management is focusing on how information systems and technology can enhance the management of complex, integrated supply chains.
