Master of Science - Global Supply Chain Management

Program Description An effective supply chain goes beyond the successful input and output of goods and services. With the right management, a supply chain has the power to influence entire business processes, create value and unite multiple organisations from all over the world. This complex discipline, with elements of IT, logistics and procurement, is increasingly important in today's globalised environment of interconnected networks.

In recent decades, organisations have become increasingly reliant on effective supply chains in order to compete in the global market. This Middlesex University course equips students with a global view of the strategic and operational processes they need to manage the key functions of these supply chain processes, including transportation, warehousing, inventory management and production planning. Middlesex University combines advanced theory teaching with practical skills training in well-known software such as SAP®and Arena® to give students a core understanding of the contemporary issues and programs used in global supply chain management.

With easy access to the corporate world from the London campus, students will develop methods of strategic and critical thinking to enhance their ability to effectively manage and improve existing structures within domestic and international companies. This real-world focus to the course ensures that students are able to respond to a variety of challenges with confidence and ingenuity, enhancing their ability to lead and helping them to advance into more senior roles quickly and capably.
