Course description

Accredited by the Chartered Institute of Logistics and Transport and the Chartered Institute of Procurement and Supply

The modern supply chain is ubiquitous, reaching into many aspects of consumers’ daily lives, and becoming increasingly important for companies. On this programme, you’ll develop the skills to manage and improve international supply chains. We’ll show you how the right technology and strategy can give you a competitive edge. We use case studies, industry links and company visits to enhance our teaching.

You can apply to do a company-based dissertation, working with an external organisation. Recent dissertation projects include working with a large logistics company to reduce their fleet’s carbon footprint and a report for an electrical company on the supply chain and market structure of their goods industry.
