Supply Chain Degree Program
Graduates of the Supply Chain Management (SCM) program will find themselves in exciting
and diverse roles in organizations where they will manage planning, forecasting, new
product introduction, manufacturing production, sourcing, sales, and distribution.
These activities are required for the efficient flow of goods and services between
the points of their creation and their ultimate consumption or disposition.
A degree in supply chain management provides a broad range of career opportunities
– inventory analysts, demand planners, purchasing managers, warehouse supervisors,
logistics specialists and account representatives, just to name a few. Graduates can
work in just about every type of industry, from retail to manufacturing to management
consulting. Once students learn about the puzzle pieces and how to put them together,
they typically find themselves in high demand with employers.

Required Internship
To ensure that students acquire the skills necessary for career success, the Supply
Chain Management Department requires all students to obtain additional internship
training directly related to the Supply Chain degree prior to graduation.
The Supply Chain Department considers your internship to be an integral part of your
overall University Experience.
The Supply Chain Internship Program enables students to gain degree-related experience
prior to graduation.
It is a planned, progressive educational strategy in which the supply chain knowledge
gained is equal to or greater than the knowledge gained in a traditional classroom
setting.
In addition to the educational experience, many internships subsequently result in
full-time offers from the internship provider.
