Leading to: Master of Science in Supply Chain and Procurement Management
Supply chain management is a critical business competency. It encompasses procurement of materials, processing and distribution of products and services to customers as well as:

  • Initial design
  • Procurement of materials and services
  • Processing and distribution to the customer either directly or through a network of distributors 

In many companies, 80% or more of their turnover is spent outside the organisation. This course helps you become effective in managing this. It’s designed for those who'll work within supply chain management. It’s also suitable for anyone with a background in support functions such as sales, maintenance, finance and marketing.

This course will cover the latest logistics requirements, for example:

  • Ability from logistics managers to enhance business opportunities to circular economy approaches and digital manufacturing;
  • Rise of sales through ecommerce also requires accurate demand and supply forecast from logistics area.

This course is delivered in partnership by the Department of Design, Manufacturing & Engineering Management, and the Department of Management Science. This collaboration between engineering and business benefits from the combination of technical and organisational expertise.
