Supply Chain Management Programs
Overseeing a modern, global supply chain means developing and mobilizing complex international networks—putting a premium on professionals who have the knowledge and capability to navigate these geographically and culturally dispersed entities efficiently, while exhibiting a solid command of supply chain theory, logistics, and international trade. In their 2017 Annual Industry Report, international trade association MHI notes that 63 percent of industry leaders see hiring and retaining a skilled workforce as a top challenge. Moreover, the Bureau of Labor Statistics states that employment of logisticians is projected to grow 28 percent from 2021 to 2031—much faster than average—with about 24,800 openings predicted each year. Now is the time to prepare for a career in supply chain management.
We welcome early- or mid-career professionals who want to advance up the job ladder, mid-career leaders who need better skills in the area of supply chain management to improve their decision-making, as well as applicants with no work experience.
Candidates for admission to the degree program are selected on the basis of academic transcripts, academic and professional references, and often interviews. Degree candidates have six years to complete the program from the date of their first course.
