Field of Study

Supply Chain Management

Master of Business

Drive operational excellence and make a meaningful impact to supply chains across industries in a complex, fast-changing world.

In an era of global production, distribution and markets, supply chains form the backbone of any business that produces, transports or sells goods. Supply chain management involves coordinating the flow of materials, information and finances from sourcing raw material to the final delivery of products to end customers.

While the traditional emphasis on cost control and efficiency remains important, today’s supply chains must be more connected, transparent and agile in the face of rising trade tensions, climate change and ongoing disruptions.

This field of study will prepare you to lead innovation in this evolving global environment. Through an industry-aligned curriculum, you’ll gain practical knowledge and critical skills in supply network design, process improvement, digital transformation, sustainability and risk management.

These capabilities are essential for designing and managing efficient, resilient and ethical supply networks across a wide range of industries, including:

  • manufacturing
  • biotechnology and pharmaceuticals
  • automotive and aerospace
  • transportation and logistics
  • internet and software
  • chemicals
  • oil and gas
  • consulting.
