Supply Chain and Logistics Management Graduate Option
This option is available within the Business Administration major at the following locations:
- Corvallis
- Ecampus
- Portland
The Supply Chain and Logistics Management (SCLM) graduate option, within the Master of Business Administration (MBA) program, offers students an alternative focus for their MBA that includes acquiring a solid mastery of international operations and supply chain and logistics management concepts and methods.
This MBA graduate option prepares graduates for operations, logistics and supply chain management in the service and manufacturing industries. In the past two decades, the loss of manufacturing jobs in the U.S. triggered attrition of innovation capabilities across many sectors of the economy contributing to the current anemic economic recovery. The U.S. needs a professionally-trained workforce that is able to manage internal operations and global supply chains in the manufacturing and service sectors and in government agencies. Well-trained operations and supply chain managers are also needed in global companies that operate outside the U.S., including companies that operate in the Asia-Pacific Rim.
Learning Outcomes: Graduates will acquire a solid mastery of global supply chain and international operations management concepts and methods.
Length: The MBA curriculum can be completed within an intensive one-year time frame. Part-time students, taking six to nine credits per quarter, can complete the program in two years on campus or in Portland.
Option Code: 2060
