Details about SCM Concentration

Structure of the MBA Concentration in Supply Chain Management

updated, Fall 2011

With the rising enrollments for the Supply Chain courses at undergraduate levels as well as growing interest at the graduate level, the Stillman School of Business recognizes there is a need for a concentration in Supply Chain Management (SCM). The current course composition comprises of core courses and a selection of elective courses. 

Our main objective in the graduate supply chain concentration is to help students acquire the necessary skills and modeling techniques that can help analyze practical situations which arise in supply chains.  Consequently, in all the courses, we emphasize examples from industry and use them to provide illustrations of the concepts in practice. The concentration provides a practical understanding of the principles of supply chain management and helps students develop an understanding of both analytic and technical methods which can be applied to optimize these systems.

Requirements: Both of the required courses (from Table  1 below) and 6 credits of electives (from Table 1 below).
