Overview
We live in a fast-paced environment where the efficient flow of goods, services and information is critical to business success and consumer satisfaction. Supply chain managers help improve customer service by ensuring products are delivered to the right place, at the right time, in the proper condition and at the lowest possible cost. The demand for qualified professionals in this rapidly evolving industry is growing as businesses and organizations recognize the cost savings and improved efficiency that can result from effective supply chain management.
The supply chain management program at UW-Superior is one of the concentration options for the business administration major. It joins and complements the successful transportation and logistics management (T&L) major—one of the most distinctive and highly-regarded programs of its kind in the United States. The T&L major is focused on operations while the SCM major is more analytical in scope.
In this program, you’ll take core business classes to gain a broad understanding of business principles, and you’ll study the complex world of supply chains through classes that emphasize data management, quantitative analysis and problem solving. You will learn the business of coordinating the seamless flow of raw materials, information and products through global supply chains.
Program Options
- A four-year plan earning a B.S. or B.A. degree in business administration with a supply chain concentration
- A four-year plan leading to a double major in transportation and logistics management and business administration with a concentration in supply chain management
