Concentration Overview

This concentration introduces students to supply chain management. Supply chain management is the study of how to design and operate efficient networks for the production and distribution of goods. Topics in supply chain management include inventory control, purchasing, transportation, pricing, and warehousing. Supply chain innovators such as Amazon, Walmart, and Toyota have transformed how people work and live. The Supply Chain Management concentration is a starting point to prepare students to work as supply chain analysts, logisticians or similar job titles (see https://www.bls.gov/ooh/business-and-financial/logisticians.htm).
