This MSc Supply Chain Management is vocational in nature, with a focus on current practices in purchasing, logistics and supply chain management. You explore contemporary concepts, theories and practices in purchasing, logistics and supply chain strategies and operations while taking up opportunities to visit local companies and observe their logistics and supply chain management activities in action. We also organise external guest presentations from industry to keep you informed of current company practices, and you can develop your industry networks by engaging with the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT) events (including their annual conference); attending guest lectures; and analysing client requirements.
Studying our Supply Chain Management MSc course will equip you with the knowledge and skills you need for the integrative management of organisations and their supply chain networks. You will be exposed to the developments and dimensions involved in designing a modern supply chain and examine key issues in its management within our Designing and Managing the Supply Chain unit. To do so, you will be taught to assess state of the art models and solutions used in the design, control, operation and management of supply chain systems. At the same time, this unit incorporates elements of Information Technology while considering customer value and international issues in supply chain management.
