The MSc Logistics and Supply Chain Management course is accredited by the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport (CILT) to provide you with the skills and knowledge to become a competent and innovative practitioner.
Over the last few years the world around us has changed dramatically and effective logistics and supply chain management has become the backbone of global resilience ensuring the flow of goods, services, and critical resources in an increasingly unpredictable world.
This course will equip you with the strategic skills and expertise to navigate complexities, drive innovation, and lead in a field that powers the global economy and transforms industries, so that you graduate with the skills the industry demands.
What's covered in this course?
As companies face increasing competition, the need to reduce waste, improve the overall service offered to customers from initial design to final delivery, and mitigate risks stemming from uncertainties, the demand for highly skilled logistics and supply chain practitioners has never been more evident.
This supply chain management course addresses the main operations aspects of both product-based and service industries. It is concerned with the initial design process, sourcing materials for the long-term satisfaction of the customer. Customer satisfaction is achieved by ensuring the supply of the right goods, in the right quantity, of the right quality, at the right price, to the right place, at the right time.
