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.

Employability
Enhancing your employability skills
Graduates with the knowledge and practical skills that are taught on this course are in high demand.

This is because the logistics sector has identified a growing need for managers who can competently identify and provide solutions to a wide range of logistical and supply chain problems.

It means when you graduate from this course, you will stand out as a candidate who can operate at a senior level in this field. Typical roles that are suited for graduates of the MSc Logistics and Supply Chain Management include supply chain managers, distribution managers, logistics managers, logistics analysts, and procurement managers.

Our graduates have gone on to forge very successful careers with world-leading organisations including WEG Electric Motors (UK) Ltd, Ishida Europe, DHL Manufacturing Logistics Services, Palletways UK, APL Logistics, BAE Systems, and Staffordshire Perkins UK.
