Who Is the Program for?
Our program works for both supply chain professionals and individuals in other careers who
see the opportunities in supply chain and want to gain a specialized knowledge. Our
program gives a 360-degree approach that covers logistics, distribution, technology,

has been in procurement. I'm a supply chain professional.” They're absolutely correct,
but they've never seen the rest of the supply chain. Our program works for multiple
profiles to bring everybody full-circle. Students can take this program completely
in the evenings without sacrificing their current jobs and careers and still complete
the degree in two years.
